Looks like a GM Diesel 6-71 to me. Interestingly the EMD engines were also made by GM and are basically a large scale version of the smaller GM diesels. Many of the componant parts are so similar that if you didn't have a scale of reference as to the size, you wouldn't know what series of engine they were from.

yeah freaky shit happens here.. does any1 know why they shut this place down, leaving alot of bottles, fork lifts, generators just chilling? and how far does this place go back?

Just there recently and that exhaust is ripped off now as if someone tried to steal it. Everything there is moved around and things are missing

That place is def. haunted or something. Me and my buddies were there an we were going upstairs in the one building and something screamed up top and we took off and heard it again.

yo thats place is sweet.....we recorded shit the other night and heard some crazy shit....i dont think its haunted.....does neone know if it is???

This water tower suppied the New Botteling House it opened in 1966 and was state of the art at that time! Publicker was the Largest Maker of drinking and Industrial Alohol in the world then employing 5,000 people world wide then.

These were just for that reason to get out and close yourself from a fire as these Buildings were not opened for many months sometimes. You would go in and in the light you would see the air was blue with Fumes! All the lights and switch boxes were sealed and explosion Proof. They were very cold and the air was terrible you could almost get drunk breathing. They gave us old WWII Artic coats to wear in the winter!

These Buildings were so well built that they were considered to be Atomic Bomb shelters I have a old company booklet that tells you what to do in case of a bomb attack!

I worked there right out of High school this warehouse is one of the real old ones from 1892 period. It has nothing to do with Wine they stored wooden Whiskey Barrels in these Racks and the elevators sometimes when overloaded would go down real fast! It was real cold in these no heat and lots of Blue fumes when not opened for a long time. worked there from 1966/1971.

How did you get in the buildings? last time i was there everything was locked...once you're in the buildings is it easy to get to the roof?

Nope it looks like a detroit 671.

I can picture people stopping on those for smoke breaks...asking...what are you taking a picture of?

You can see the same reactor from one of the cupola's at pennhurst.
