No twisted sticks here, just some nice (although likely common) porcelain uniparts supporting the 2400V bus in a substation in southeastern ND. This particular substation has THE last switches of their type on this company's system (early side-break switches), and when I can find the overall pictures of the sub, I'll post them here somewhere. This sub is also the company's last one that has straight 2400V delta (all their other remaining 2400V subs have been changed to corner-ground delta). Late 2021 update: A peek in street view shows a brand-new steel substation set to be erected a few dozen yards west. :(
