Folks:
Right now my model railroad is the Packed-away Pacific, and I've been doing lots of electrical work on the house, which led me to wonder something: how many of us have modeled the hardware of the power company? You see lots of power poles, but very seldom the web of service drops that connects them to houses. How many of us have 3-phase transformers on poles near smaller industries? I seem to recall E. L. Moore building some of these in old articles. How about meter boxes? These are quite prominent, especially once you get into multi-unit apartment buildings and so forth, and they even show up with underground service.
This is just idle curiosity on my part. I for one have never installed such details, but I think next time I am going to, just to see if it's the missing detail that would make my city look complete.
Cordially yours: Gerard P.
