Three crossarms with insulators have been installed recently for display at the restored Brooks, OR. depot by the Line Dept. of the Oregon Electric Railway Museum (that's me and my partner Greg Bonn). Last year we put up one pole of triple 10 pin arms near the depot. By adding crossarms on this pole shown, it gives the impression that the line is going somewhere and not just 1 pole with insulators, as you can see in the following photos. Thanks go to Salem, OR. collector Nathan Lamkey for coming up with some great color choices to add to my color choices.
