Here is what I took home from my day out. Found four of the five CD 152's on a crossarm in the mud. Can't even guess the number of lunor tides of the Hudson River those four have seen or been submerged in. There was one green that I didn't know was coming home with me. They were just caked in mud and only seperated from there pins before cleaning. The insulator far left is a Brookfield No 36 (CD 162). Has lots of stones bubbles and light milk swirls. Also is quite distorted. Leans one way and the innerskirt is way out of center. The yellow green next to that one si a CD 162.1. This one has multiple cracks. Very difficult to tell if some or all were factory made. A thick milk stringer or other piece of junk is within the major crack. All and all it was a good hunt. Would have liked to of had some of the ones I left behind on their crossarms though!!
