Two 4kv or 4160v Lines leaving the substation. Not for sure if the line on the other side is IP&L or MoPub's line. I think it's just MoPub's.

Former 34.5kv line entering the Substation.

Typical Junction Pole (I guess that's what you can call it.) with a Switch on both sides. You can find these what's left on the "Pocket Subs" in the Kansas City area. There are actually some operating at 34.5kv and still in service outside of Kansas City, mostly in the country of Missouri. 34.5 Sub-Transmission Line entering the Substation and a 4kv line leaving the Substation.

I’m not entirely sure if this substation has been decommissioned completely. This Sub use to run 34.5kv to (I’m assuming 4kv or 4160v.) years ago. I think it now runs 13kv or 12kv to 4kv now, I could be very well wrong. I was standing by the fence and I heard the Transformers still making a buzzing noise, so I’m a little bit confused now. This is one of very few 34.5kv “Pocket Subs” left on MoPub’s grid. I need to do a Line Safari in this area soon before KCP&L or IP&L decide to take down the rest of the 4kv System in this area.

I haven’t really came up for it name yet. This is a Mixed Media Piece I’m working on in my AP Art Studio class in school. I drew it, then colored it in Watercolor, Acrylic Paint, and Prismacolor Colored Pencils. It’s not placed off of anything, just something I came up with. A log cabin and a barn in in the Missouri Winter (When it actually snows). The poles are placed off of “Missouri Public Service Co” 34.5kv Sub-Transmission Poles and Single Phase Underbuild Distribution. This isn’t fully completed yet. I just need to add a few more details to the Road and Shadows.

A close up of the first pole in the picture.

A drawing of street with some old 2 Phase Poles feeding some houses. That's really it. Obviously, it's not finished.

Did this for fun. Just a drawing of a line with 115kv over 69kv and 13.8kv. I kinda messed up the 69kv line, it looks like a 34.5kv line.

Just a quick drawing I did in class the other day, I was getting a little creative. It's 115kv over 69kv over 13.8kv. The 115kv part is loosely based of of the Otter Tail Power 115kv line with Line Post insulators David D. has in his gallery.

Well... I geuss I'm ready for the Missouri Vallery Insulator Show. I won't be displaying, but I'm bringing them with me in case I want to trade or something. This isn't even my whole collection. I have a few somewhere in my house that I can't find.

Here just a bit of a town that I am drawing on a piece of poster paper. The top circuit is 34.5kv Sub-Transmission and the bottom circuit is 2.4kv Delta Disturbution.
