Can you imagine the noise that must have been in these places with all the machinery running? I doubt they were too concerned with hearing loss back then. I wonder how many people worked here that are now tone deaf?
That reminds me of an old oil fired furnace I once knew
but what were they measuring. .
What the ?#@@!* are these? They look like some of the aparatus that was in Dr. Frankensteins Lab.
I wonder if when they demolish places like this if someone goes around and saves all these metal plates, signs, knobs and whatever else they can pry loose? I know I sure as hell would.
Those two holes should be a hint! HA! Happy Holidays Mr. Motts and thank you for another fine gallery. This will be my Christmas Present!!

True about the grated floors, I didn't think of that...

Thanks; no there was enough natural light for this photo coming from the turbine hall on the left.

Yes there was a rung ladder leading down into each of the bins, but if one fell into an empty bin they would probably be hurt pretty bad as they were quite deep.

I don't recall any particular odor or noises; it's a bit tough to remember after a few years...

That red door against the gray really stands out. Nice contrast.

Looks like one of the video games my kids had where you had to run around this old plant stealing flags and shooting people!
