In the Netherlands, the distribution network for electricity is for about 99,95% underground. A couple of small overground networks are remaining, mostly because of swamp like soil conditions. In the Krimpenerwaard, about 100 km of overground network is left. As overground networks are so uncommon, there hasn’t been any technical modernisation for decades, only maintenance and repairs. It does have a very nostalgic vibe.
