Slow day for insulators. . .but did find this neat picture. Look at the top of the pole that blocks part of the name on the station. Looks like an old wood cut-out or ??? on the top. Could this be an power line above the phone lines? Top left of the photo has captured a nice shot of a bracket on the right of the top cross-arm.

And of course. . .the mail bag in the forefront is REALLY cool!

UPDATE! The GOM helped me out . . .the box on top of the pole is a distribution thingy for the telephone wire drop to the depot. . .Thank you Brent!

Any guesses on the type of steam locomotive coming from the left?

mailbag dog ^..^
