CD 219 and CD 183 Hemingray glass insulators in service use

CD 219 and CD 183 Hemingray glass insulators in service use
Alley between E West St and E Simpson St just east of S Mulberry St, Troy, Ohio.

A shot of some old poles with some old lightning arresters, cutouts, and a pothead in Troy, Ohio. The glass insulators are CD 219 Hemingray 660's and CD 183 Hemingray-71's. Looks like a couple of nice white U-180 Ohio Brass porcelain insulators.

Fantastic finds and shot! Troy seems to be the last place in DP&L land with so much of this old construction still up. I've only found one other pothead riser on DP&L, which is also in Troy.

Thanks! I shot two more poles with pothead risers, one a double, but I don't think they are being used in service. I would like to get back down there to shoot the rest of the old poles. I found on Google maps a pole with 13 glass insulators on it. I stopped here on the way back from the Mid-Ohio Springfield show to photograph trains when I found all the old poles.
