The pylons on both sides look much shorter on both sides. Why were the orignal pylons built in 1958 much taller? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.46.204.60 ( talk) 21:49, 24 November 2008 (UTC) reply

It was the longest powerline span of North America and interestingly blown-up after just 4 yearsof operation. This is very unusual!

Missing data

  • Operation voltage of the line
  • endpoints of the line
  • Was the first crossing situated at an other site before it was blown up? If yes, where? How was it possible to rebuild it with using smaller towers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.228.26.203 ( talk) 14:41, 5 August 2016 (UTC) reply
