As soon as I saw this place pop up on here I was planning a trip! All the cool computers and working lights were too much to resist, and my only hope was it would all still be running by the time I got over there. Not only were all the computers still on, there were actually more of them! This cool location is currently being upgraded to fully computerised control systems. What you see here is state-of-the-art production and it's pretty bloody impressive!

Visited with SpiderMonkey and two non-members.
