have not heard "line hand" in a long long time
looking at a picture (on my office wall) of
my brother & another lineman on a ladder clippping -traveler still attached - line in
coffin hoist stevens pass WA 1955 345kv
next to picture of beat up (2year old PW) with crew
from just an old grunt
ps my 48 has a complete set of linemans gear
except for an original hand line
and only 2 on the forum so far know what a
gin pole is and how they are used.
ps
my dad's company western line construction
had over 100 pws on the job from foster creek
to snohomish 1954 - 1956
