Found this insulator at work...

I work for a RR in MA, we were working on our tracks behind Gillette Stadium a few weeks ago and I found this completely intact insulator just laying on the ground. No chips or cracks. I believe it to be a newer high voltage insulator. A guy on a FB group said it may have been from a trolley. What do you all think? And what's a value? [attachment=insulator.jpg]

That looks to be a rather modern (50 - 60 years old) 2 or 3 part piece that has minimal collector value. Its an O.K. start if one wants to begin a high voltage power insulator collection. I have quite a few scattered around my house as sort of yard art. I get interesting comments from non-collectors. I will have to take a picture to share one of these days. Jim
