A few more 33kV pre grid towers.
-
I’m looking at one or two more recent “polon” designs . Future projects are to move away from latticework and focus on building power grid structures which are more straight forward for others to copy and build .
-
This particular design probably dates back to the 1920’s , at 60-70 feet in height , wouldn’t be too imposing on most layouts as well as covering a broad timeline.

A few more photos featuring various 33kV pre grid designs.

Definitely.

A good job this cat’s got nine lives.

Why were the BB L6 DTs’ replaced with L12s’ ?

Just received this in the post a few days ago , both fascinating and very informative.

Western Power Distribution reminder.

Yes , this BB D90 converts the line down to two wires . From here the line splits ; west to Walham substation (mainly L2) and south to Upper Minety/Melksham subs (L2).

The Oxford to Walham line - New Botley (Oxford) and Needlehole (Cotswolds) , the latter also takes the line down from quad to duo.

Attended the Alton show on Saturday, some great layouts covering various themes but as usual not a single utility pole, pylon or substation. However there was gasworks modelled in 1:76 scale.
