Hi everyone, here's a recent fieldtrip to Southampton, there's lots of pylon goodness here.
Here's some L6 & L2 pylons heading from Nursling Substation, the route code for the L6s is 4YD and for the L2s is NM. The L2 pylons are not shown on the map.

The pylons get taller and cross the A35 at Totton.

The pylons then cross the River Test. Spot the L2 junction tower.

There it is, then a route heads towards the harbour and another route continues from the harbour and heads into Southampton. I'll see if I can come back to them another time.

Here's the L6 & L2 pylons from the other side of the river.
i1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd486/cmaldridge/DSCF7002_zpsddd7a5f5.jpg
The pylons then head past Eling.

The L2 pylons end, here's the terminal tower.

The L6 pylons head up to a junction.

One section of the line heads to Fawley.

The other section makes its way to Marchwood, it has about four L8 deviation towers in the line then changes to L2.

i1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd486/cmaldridge/DSCF7014_zps304e903a.jpg
Two single circuit PL16 routes heading to Marchwood.
i1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd486/cmaldridge/DSCF7015_zps7b72f4ef.jpg
One of them converts to double circuit.

Double circuit and single circuit PL16 pylons making their way to the substation at Marchwood Industrial Park.

And here's the L2 pylons heading to the substation.

Finally here's some pictures of the pylons at the substation. Another PL16 pylon heads from the substation on the other side starting off with two L4 pylons.
