That first pole is a definite MUST. The smooth GE pellet arresters are OLD!! Looks like the utility at Conneaut uses ridge pins to make riser brackets and the sub has Frankenstein switches galore.

The sub sounds neat. I haven't seen it yet.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Cleveland a muni?

If you go to the northeast of Ohio, need to check out the CD 302s glass insulators in service. They're along highway 20 and just west of highway 576. There were still close to about 80 -100 in use.

Looks like the system in Rocky River is still 2400V?! At 19937 OH-2 there's a rectangular can in use.

I made a mistake in the above comment, the 302s are in northwest Ohio.

Not many of those air-cooled transformers!
