Most large institutions now have back-up generators for power outages, especially institutions that have folks with medical conditions. As well, most (all?) areas are issued LOTS of flashlights (big 'uns) to use in the case of a power outage and they are supposed to test them monthly.

I don't think so... I think it needs electricity to work by the looks of the speakers underneath it.

Phantom you shouldnt take things out should you?

I wonder why the tunnels looked like this, they must have relied totally on electric lights to get light in.. what happened if there were patients being transported during a power outage?

Hey Motts, did that organ work?

Makes you think of like sitting in a chair getting lectured by a principal or something lol

This makes you feel so bad for the kids that were there... definitely NOT a playroom I would play in

The rust is pretty cool

My house is like this actually we have steps like this but much more narrow. My whole basement has like stairwells that lead to walls and you can actually got to the 3rd floor and go down INTO the walls, you walk between rooms and can listen to poeples conversations. (Great for me when i think im about to get in trouble, i just listen to my parents! :D)

i have neve felt so bad as i did when i walked these hallways and passages

YOU'RE ALL WRONG THIS IS WHERE THE GROW TYPEWRITERS..

MR MOTTS PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON A BOOK ABOUT YOUR ADVENTURES AND THAT THE BOOK IS FULL OF YOUR PHOTOS, IF NOT WHY NOT.

different seats for sure....looks like one might have been for wheelchair patients....

I'll let anyone voice their opinion here, even if I disagree. And thank you for keeping this short and civil, much appreciated.

Possibly...
