mr.motts,you take great pictures..i just discovered your site and cant get enough of it...truly awesom...if you ever get down to florida,i can turn you on to some great old places down here...you would not be dissapointed...keep up the good work...

amazingly, no. I arrived at Goshen in September of 1964, just weeks after his death, yet didn't learn about the incident till 2003 or so! It chills me to think of the thousands of times I walked over the spot he died without knowing.

Don't try flushing the toilet. That'll plug up the sewer for sure!!!

Oh dear, Lynne! So true! You could be all, "And that's what will happen if you're not careful! Therefore...be careful. Now...kindly...HELP ME UP!"
And, poisonousxbeauty, if there was a rope of some sort, it'd no doubt be rotted through and through, seeing as the floor is no doubt in such a state of disrepair, most likely from water damage. The rotten rope of doom would be no good to anybody, really...not even Indiana Jones, himself.

Yep... Those are definatley drapery hooks. I guess they needed a place to store them...LOL....

Now this makes my bathroom look luxurious!! Even with the towels tossed in the floor!..lol.

Whoa!, Thanks for the warning Puddleboy. I guess adding cream and sugar would just make it worse.

It would be my guess that the furnaces produced steam for heat and pipes ran it through the entire facility. Then they also used the same steam to produce electricity in the steam engines. Electric pumps for water, coal as the heat source and the place was off the power grid. Just keep trucking in coal and food.

One correction - they did not cool the engine with a water jacket. No need to. If anything that is insulated to keep it warm - keep the steam up to temp. setam is only - anyone remember? - 212 degrees. not hot enought to need cooling. nice pix. I would love to poke around there myself.

This is actually a rather large, stationary engine, probably diesel, if not that, then its steam. Often large facilities made their own power - this is the case here.

scrubbing bubbles, LOTS of them!

I had seen the word 'pure', but not 'coffee' and 'one lb'. The word across the top is most likely a brand name. Thanks!!

The cat is inside of a coffee can, you can make out the words pure, one lb and coffee, the word across the top is difficult to make out.

Motts, that is one stunning picture!
