Visited with Riddlers and Tank, a return visit for me, the first time for the other guys.
At ground level there are all the wagons and machinery that was used down the mine, here's tank taking a picture of an excavator...
Once inside the main building, we made our way up to the headstock unloading level...
Then for a look further into the darkness...
Then we stopped for a group photo, I was concerned that this cart was going to to roll out of the tenth floor window...
A view from the roof, over to the headstocks...
and again...
Some pipes on the roof...
Another view from the roof...
Part of the miles of conveyors...
Then, we made our way over to the cooling towers, here's a view of the headstocks on the way...
Inside the cooling towers...
Finally, we took a wander back over to the museum, for coffee and toast, stopping by these contraptions, there was lots of these, personnel bikes to use underground on the narrow gauge railway...
