Insulator finds

Since the cold weather has settled in, decided to take a walk along the railroad tracks to see what I could find. Not much worth anything, but I figured I would share.

Front row (left to right):
Rubber insulator
Not sure (??)
CD 1049 (there were around 6 of these. only took one)
Rubber insulator

Middle row
CD 154 Lynchburg no. 44
CD 154 Lynchburg no. 44
CD 154 Lynchburg no. 44
CD 154 Whitall Tatum Co. no. 1

Back row
2 ceramic (not sure what type. no markings).

Any comments on any would be great.

Happy hunting!!

Are you referring to the ceramic insulators? Or all of them? I have never seen any with RR branding.

They are cool. proably would look nice in a sunny window. I recently found (eyeballed) an aqua blue one, "HEMINGRAY" No 42 I think, but not a glass collector gave to my digging buddy who is.

42s are the most common I believe.

That is cool. I will keep my eye out for them. I have never seen any with RR on them. I didn't even know they existed. Thanks for the tip.
