You are so lucky Motts, there on maybe the one day out of who knows how many that it was dry.

Must have been so dangerous to work here. High-temp steamworks, especially the ones back in the day, tended to like to spring leaks at a moment's notice.

No safety cage, I see!

Geeeurrrgh, don't remind me, I never knew that the MOON could be so darn creepy. But that's actually creative graffiti for once!

Another urbexer I know has a tip for testing metal steps - stand on the bottom one and jump hard. If the staircase bows or you hear a screeching sound, stay off.

Copper thieves, natch.

Man, that's one big whonking trolley crane, must've been used to shift generator parts and such.

Wonder why this one got left.

N - windows or maybe big vents or chutes.

Wow they actually bothered to take the machinery out of this place, that's unusual!

Those old-timers knew how to put nice touches on anything, even smokestacks, the fluting is so neat.

Did you read the text?

...my father still has his VIC. It and about 8 game cartridges were what us kids used for a video game system until I was around 15 and we bought a Playstation 1. My all-time favorite was "River Racers".

Again, creepy-level resemblance...

if I may skirt the rules just a tad, Motts, was this school actually in Kansas or was that a location you made up to anonymize it?

I truly don't know how this looks so much like my old school, right down to the entrance. We had staircases going up to the 2nd story on either side once you came in the main entrance and side doors going down as well, in a slightly different arrangement.

I still remember the first day I went to the "upstairs for big kid class" (3rd grade) as kindergarten was in a separate building and 1-2nd grade were downstairs. Made me nervous as heck.

Reminds me of 5th grade dissection. NOT my happiest hour!

I have to admit I would probably break the UE code and walk off with all the books I could stagger with...
