    Hello, I have recently got into collecting glass/ceramic insulators. I found this thing while digging in an area where some old railroad tracks used to run. I'm not sure what it is. Can anyone help identify it?

    as per forum rules, I am not asking for price or value of this item, nor am I looking to sell it. I am trying to find out if it is a ceramic insulator or something else.

      I would think so, as there are hundreds if not thousands of styles of insulators: http://mproconstruct.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Power-Line-Hardware.jpg
