Someone responded to my ad in the local paper and said he had buckets of insulators that had been sitting behind his house for 15 years. He said a bunch of them were PRRs. He wasn't kidding. There were 48 162.5s black with soot in a couple of the buckets. See the next few pictures for other items in the buckets. He said that he picked these up from a PRR line along the Youghiogheny River when they were taking the poles down. |
