At least the 4160V system in Ihlen and 2400V delta system in Jasper (likely Home Electric Co. and not NSP) are still intact!

This is an OLD pole! I like those old knob insulators that hold the transformer leads. Connecticut Light & Power had a lot of those on the old 4.8 kV systems. It wouldn't surprised me if this pole originally had glass insulators on it.

I need to see if a history book exists for Jasper so I can find out more about the old Home Electric Co. (which served Ihlen and Jasper - the tie to NSP was made at Pipestone) so I can get an idea as to the system's age.
