Report - Rugeley 'B' Power Station - January 2017

[Speed]

Probably not really worth a report other then to say if you have even a slight interest in power station exploring and haven't been here yet get your ass moving now! Im a bit late to the party but it seems thats often the way with stuff thats local, it just gets put off and put off until you have a spare evening. Luckily i think i put it off for just about the optimum amount of time really. The station is still pretty much all still there apart from the one set of LP turbines. Its also totally deserted and lit up like a proper Mary Celeste. Spent a good few hours wandering around like i owned the place.

Probably got to be in my top 5 ive seen. Boiler house and control room probably not that special but the turbine hall, especially on the lower level with its chequered Terrazzo floor is fantastic.

Thank to @The Amateur Wanderer for a few pointers #tourbus

I like the control room, it probably looked very futuristic back in the day.

Looks bloody awesome that does. I like the control room, reminds me of Goldeneye for some reason.

Jesus, that ceiling looks like something from "Logan's Run"

I don't care for the clock on a stick... clocks should be set into the panel, not stuck on top of them!

The chequered floor was a really nice touch! Good stuff
