Caption

Three power lines cross the Alps from north to south. They distribute energy in Switzerland and neighbouring countries for railways, industry and homes.

Some months ago, on a stormy night, one of these lines was touched by a tree and led to a complete blackout in northern Italy.

The same power lines can by seen also on the background of my contribution to the bridges wwp event.
