I love the industrial galleries. This set is already one of my favorites.Please, Keep em coming. Great work.

Looks like the machines from War of the Worlds.

I wonder what the overhead doors were used for?

These were probably cutting edge controls at one time or another. They are also very interesting just to look at ,even not knowing what they are all were exactly used for.

Looks like something used to be there.

Hey. iII save it ........in my scrap pile.

These are the biggesr springs i have ever seen.

It might be an expansion joint - a way for the pipe to flex as it expanded and contracted while full of steam.

These are insulated copper windings, called a stator, and in the middle
this round thing is called the rotor, the rotor is attached on the turbine
and so making the electicity that we need.
It is a very fine example of craftmanship.

Wow, look at all those open contacts!!! Built back when people knew better than to just go sticking their hands into stuff

Freddie's front door

Looking down you see the abandoned executive swimming pool area...................

I agree with you, ella - the symmetry is striking. Great shot!

I agree, that would definitly need to be saved

Looks like whatever day it was shutdown, it was around 1:30 pm . . .
