    Sorry Poot.. We been side tracked with the weather an all..
    Soon as I get back there. I promise you will get your " plate picture".
    And CLIVE.. I said it was older than me... I was born in 1962

    the Tranny ( electrical ) Is 1927.. I think that's pretty cool , that is still working...( even as stated that it's probably full of cancerous PCB,S ) .
    I am assured the pole it was mounted on had been changed a few times...
    IF IT WASN'T FOR BAD LUCK WE WOULD HAVE NO LUCK AT ALL. !

    You should send it to your current transformer manufacturer and suggest they take it to bits to learn how to do their job properly.
