Wakashi Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Very interesting concept, coal fired power station! My hometown is built over many, many old coal mines from yesteryear, even the streets are full of dips from the settling over the years (better than speed bumps), we were a coal boomtown!

adambar Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Great shot Martyn! We have a lot of coal fired power plants around my neck of the woods. Like Roger this area was full of coal mines back in the day, although there are still some around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
