Am gestrigen 09.05. war der schon ziemlich ranzig aussehende Tw 1022 der Saarbahn mit Lotto Werbung als Linie 1 von Siedlerheim nach Klein Blittersdorf unterwegs und konnte von mir an einer neu entdeckten Stelle fotografisch festgehalten werden.
auf Talfahrt über dem Neckar. Leider hatte mich das Dach des Pliensauturms offenbar weniger interessiert...
“Niagara Falls of the West”
As the U.S. entered the electric age, the 30 to 40 feet of water height, or “head,” at the falls was a natural for power generation, and the location was promoted as the “Niagara Falls of the West.”
Using generators originally employed in a Portland sawmill, the Willamette Falls Electric Company, a precursor of Portland General Electric, produced the nation’s first long-distance transmission of electricity on June 3, 1889. Power traveled from Station A in Oregon City to the streetlights in Portland 14 miles away.
The T.W. Sullivan Plant is born
Station B opened on the West Linn side of Willamette Falls in 1895. PGE closed Station A in 1897, but B continued operation, taking the name in 1953 of the PGE hydraulic engineer who designed the station, Thomas W. Sullivan. The entire development was called the Willamette Falls Hydroelectric Project.
By that year, the plant was generating 16,000 kilowatts, which it still does today.

we worked up an appetite during our second photo-stroll this week. we already had lunch at our favorite mediterranean joint and then decided to have a couple slices of "supreme" at little five points pizza before heading home. todd patiently waited for me to finally get a shot that wasn't blurry. i think his pizza got a bit cold. :-)
