The Sydney open streetcar passes near the power substation at Oregon Electric Railway Museum in Brooks, OR. The 1937 Ford power line service truck is carrying a "small" 5 kw. power transformer and is displaying the Byllesby shield, a symbol of a once large utility empire, long since gone. Their slogan was "Pioneers in Public Service".
