No.5 Units Generator Control System seen on the Station Operators Desk. All control related equipment within the 'B' station is BTH (British Thompson Houston) Kit, as mentioned in previously uploaded work related to Winnington 'B' (Check the album to the right) you'll be aware that this control room is in charge of an entire ICI Winnington, Northwich Grid as well as two generating stations ICI Winnington 'B' of course and ICI Northwich's Lostock 'B' Power Station. Rather amazingly that puts this control room under the power of six Brown Boveri Turbines fitted to six Richardson Westgarth 6.25MW Alternators with enough space to fit a further two machines as seen on the control panels. Two machines at Lostock and four at Winnington.
