We have similar ones in Orlando (painted in gaucher colors) and I thought they’re for water distribution. We don’t have any freeze danger here so it’s OK for them to be above ground- I’m guessing that as far north as you are, having above-ground water pipes would be a bad idea. Propane sounds good!
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so.
If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out.
If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania.
You can read all about the details of my trip

What exactly is that?
It looks like a pressure regulating station for possibly propane(givin the obvious fire hazard) for heating the houses in the neighborhood.
The 2 larger valves are regulating valves and just to the right of those is what’s called a Y-strainer to catch whatever debris might be in the line.

Time for the truth-it regularly sprays UFO repellent. That’s why we have so few sightings here in MN.
Finnaly the truth.. I say Barry for President…. lol..

That is a gas line. It’s natural, not propane.
