The pics are close but no We"o"

The buss would have disconnects for the "high" and "low" side of the XFMR.Those little XFMR's would not be there.Instead a taller and smaller diameter thing would be there with 2 insulators sticking out of the top as most high voltage equipment is done that way.You don't want your men walking into a hot bushing

The smaller diameter cylinders are OCR's or Oil Circuit Reclosers a form of breaker they operate automatically and are designed to give the line 3 shots to clear a fault after the third operation if it can't surge the line to clear the fault it "Locks Out". All Substation breakers are mounted externally

Cesar your XFMR's are as close as you can get in the toy world.
