Mike, thank you very much for these fine photographs - they are great eye-openers for all of us who stumble through a wealth of details and never see them.
For me as an European it is always a bit strange to see how the electric power lines are led into the buildings in the USA. There still seem to be lots of (pardon the expression
) caveman installations around. Here in central Europe the whole power disribution is underground and today you hardly ever see a household power line or telephone pole. Of course we had these lines some decades back, too. But because we have 220 Volts instead of your 110 Volts the wires were much thinner and not as conspicuous as the thick cables in America.
But it's just photographs like yours which helps us European modellers of American prototype to get that bit of reality which we would simply forget otherwise. So thank you for these fine pics!
And, BTW, congratulations to the quality of your other photographs on your website! Again, lots of details to see there - you gave me a wealth of suggestions to do some more detailing. No wonder I bookmarked your site!
