A pole with a 2400 volt 3 phase transformer for power to a new rail car storage building. The pole was constructed entirely by the Overhead Lines and Substations volunteers at the Western Railway Museum in Solano County, California. It has the California code required yellow painted (or a high voltage sign) cross arms. The bowl type insulators are a bit large for 2.4 kV but they liked them since they were new in the boxes!
