Too bad it's off in the boondocks. Streetview will not make it there for a long time, if it all.

If you look closely enough below the bell mounting, the wire runs along the side of the post and not through it.bnsflover wrote:A crossbuck... on a wooden pole... with a wire through it... Sorry, sir. That result is invalid in my book.

Re: Odd "Signal" on BNSF
