Hi

I noticed that one of the landscape features that appears to be most 
missing from the UK is the runs of electricity cables & pylons, which 
seems a shame seeing their height are useful for getting your bearings.
I suppose the reason is that many are hard to get a location for.

Has anybody enquired to the National Grid so see if they have & are 
willing to release a database of their infrastructure?

I know there's an appreciation society for pylons:
http://www.pylons.org/

I'll send them an email if I don't joy here.

Cheers
Dave F.
