railway, power transmission line
Major power conduit for the former Pennsylvania Railroad electrified zone transmitting 4 circuits of single phase power at 138kV 25Hz between the generating station at the Safe Harbor Dam to the substation on the Northeast Corridor at Perryville. Due to clearance issues along the Port Road branch, this transmission line is carried on commercial transmission lines instead of railroad catenary supports.
Included now-abandoned spur lines to the Conowingo and Fishing Creek rail substations that fed the Port Road branch.
