Is it possibly AT&T's old network?

This network runs through our service territory, too. The horns are distinctive.

Hi Folks,
I find myself driving down Route 66. On our way through Arizona, I was
surprised by what look like a lot of old-style microwave links. They
pretty much follow the East-West rail line - where I'd expect there's a
lot of fiber buried.
Struck me as somewhat interesting.
It also struck me that folks here might have some comments.
