I was in Hialeah again on Friday and while visiting a paint shop a pendejo blocked me in. Having several minutes to kill, I shot these.
The term "blast furnace" refers to a blast of hot air being shot into molten metal to start the chemical reactions that separate pure iron from the impurities in iron ore.
Originally, there were eight huge steam powered air compressors that produced the air to do this at Sloss Furnaces. In 1949 and 1951, two much smaller turboblowers were installed and the eight behemoths were shut down. This is one of those two turboblowers. In the high ceilinged hall beyond are the eight steam-powered models.
A few months ago a photo club member posted an image of this fence from a different angle. She was gracious enough to share it's location. I first photoed it on a sunny day, there were real contrast problems with splotches of light & shadow. I later went back on a overcast day & got it with more even lighting. Then there was a low snow day, it's up about 4500'. I went back the morning the snow stopped. I have other pictures that show the snow a bit better but I like the way the bicycles show from this angle. I met the woman who's house this fronts, she plans to add to it as bicycles become available. Just a quirk for her living in the mountains.
Een klein half achter de instructierit van SNG reed Volkerrail met een werktrein vanuit Deventer. Deze trein bestond uit een sleep fas'n en klmos'n beladen met nieuwe ballast. Achter de V100 bevindt zich een platte wagen met daarop een compressor, die lucht pompt voor de wagens type fas, zodat deze zijdelings gelost kunnen worden. De combinatie heeft bijna zijn eindbestemming Amersfoort GE bereikt en zal die dag erop naar spoorwerkzaamheden ergens in Nederland rijden.

The monster sleeps in the basement. Sometimes it wakes up and makes an infernal noise for a minute or two. Then silence again.
