Stumbling from the darkness, eyes becoming once again accustomed to daylight, wondering, where if anywhere, there is to go now, has the luck run out? Am I about to be nabbed by Falkenservice Security?
"You are fucking joking, aren't you?"
That might have looked easy, but it wasn't, the damn bloody window kept swinging closed every time my back nudged it, as once again headfirst onto a less than forgiving concrete floor.
Some lovely bits of antique machinery, Love this manually operated press 1926
Windows could do with a clean
Somehow just following my nose I found myself at the business end of the power plant
At the end of hostilities the plant closed for a short period until the Soviets put it back into use, it continued to generate electricity up until 1992, when it was finally shut down, as the proposal to convert to burning natural gas would have proved to expensive.
Boiler No 1
Every boiler needs a pressure gauge, every workplace needs a clock
The control desks for the 3 boilers
Access for raking out the clinker and ashes
Now I wonder where this leads...........
