After I finished visiting St. Stephen’s Cemetery, I opted to drive to the end of Gorge Rd. It changes from Winooski to Colchester, VT, by the way. And what greeted me? Gorge Substation #16! Link here: https://youtu.be/fTVPtHAtzGQ. It’s not on Google Maps! Google Maps shows the road as a cul-de-sac. Heck no! I could turn around before I got to the substation, but could not drive around it.
I did see and film a bit of the railroad bridge that’s to the left of the substation, too. So cool!!
This was one of the coolest places I’ve filmed yet and I didn’t even know it existed! In the description below, there is a longer explanation of what a substation does. Essentially, it converts high voltage electricity into the lower voltage electricity buildings use.
