Not sure exactly what it is about this one, but I like it.

When I took geology in college, they had a wooden cabinet like this in the room full of all kinds of rocks. I think this would be very interesting to look at. (Yeah, I like looking at rocks and stuff.)
Weird place to store this kind of thing though.

I'd think that at least some volunteers could be organized to transport some of this equipment to other facilities in need.

The joys of a state-run facility. Now, if this were a private facility that closed, you can believe that anything salvagable like this would have been put to good use somewhere else... It's a shame that the government isn't willing to do that to help out some of the smaller places that can't afford nice new equipment like this!

I'm amazed by how much equipment was just left behind, now unused. It doesn't seem like it would cost too much to transport things such as wheelchairs. We're such a wasteful society...

Definitely some unusual pieces of equipment in this place!
