As the story of the free pole made the rounds of the morning coffee crowd, another freebee came to me. Brackets, pins spools, multi's and service drops and maybe 100 porcelains, most of which seem to be CP. Years ago, so the story goes, Ontario Hydro was removing a few miles of a redundant line. This one farmer said he'd take the line down that was on his property for the material. It was agreed and this had been in his barn ever since, just waiting for the right person to come along. Failing to find the right person, it came to me.
