I know it's an overused phrase, but this place really was EPIC. It had everything you want from an explore, sneaking around to get in, dodging CCTV security guards and ridiculous fences. Industrial porn on an epic scale, retro control rooms, working automatic doors it really was immense...

Sometimes working a Sunday has its advantages such as no demolition crew right next to your entry point It took longer to get in than it did to explore the place but the control room made for a welcome site to work for a little while
