A pole with alley crossarms and wooden pins in downtown Warsaw. Six CD 162 Hemingray 19's on the bottom crossarms. Looks like the multiparts were added later with the steel pins.

Alley between Florida Dr and Forest Park Blvd and north of E State Blvd, Fort Wayne, Indiana.

A shot of an old City Light and Power, Indiana Michigan Power utility pole in the neighborhood of Northside in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

In this shot the glass insulator is a CD 168 Hemingray D-510. Hard to believe its been five years when this was all upgraded to a single phase circuit.

Before March 1, 1975 the top two crossarms would of been I&M while the bottom two CL&P. After that date, I&M leased from CL&P for 35 years until on February 28, 2010, I&M would eventually become the exclusive electric service provider for Fort Wayne

Google street view what it looks like today with it all single circuit, even a new repaved concrete alley.

The series street lighting might be long gone, but there are still a lot of glass insulators and crossarm-hung transformers in use around the town of Bluffton, IN.

Alley between Garfield Ave and S Madison St south of W Race St, Troy, Ohio.

Glass insulators are three CD 231.2 Kimble-820's and six CD 183 Hemingray-71's. I always wondered what the bottom crossarm was used for on many of the poles with mostly the CD 183's (fire or police alarm signal circuits ?). Looks like none of the circuits are in use anymore.

Alley between California Ave and Alabama Ave north of Vermont Ave, Fort Wayne, Indiana.

A shot of an old City Light and Power, Indiana Michigan Power utility pole in the neighborhood of Northside in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Sections of Northside and small sections of Spy Run were the last two neighborhoods in Fort Wayne to have some of the old CL&P/I&M poles still up in service. Sadly, upgrades to these poles happen about two years ago and is all now just a single phase circuit line.

This shot shows an old GE transformer along with a CD 168 Hemingray D-510 glass insulator, one old box cutout, and a glass lightning arrester.

Before March 1, 1975 the top two crossarms would of been I&M while the bottom two CL&P. After that date, I&M leased from CL&P for 35 years until on February 28, 2010, I&M would eventually become the exclusive electric service provider for Fort Wayne.
