This is truly fascinating. I'm wondering if anyone a the Historic Society knows more about "the one of 12 dams of the 2000 HP Hydro Electric Plant" are these dams still in operation?

Evidence of the dams still exist and most are still intact but no longer control water levels. These all occur around Slave Lake on the O'Donnell Road north of Northbrook however all the dams are now on private property. The main dam had a hole blown in it draining the main lake. This dam was maybe 20' high in some places. Several smaller dams run through the forest. The canal (penstock) can be seen from the road although you need to know where to look. Two photos exist below in the photostream. The most impressive is the penstock canal which routed the water from the dams to the turbines and powerhouse.

thanks! I'll have to take a drive this summer up to Harlowe on the Henderson Rd from Arden

Big ships on the Tyne. There's something very special about these images.

Thank you for the series. It's been amazing watching her come together.

I agree, such a great series, fascinating and often astonishing.

Thanks for all your kind words. It's been a pleasure to be able to share these with you - and there are more to come.

Wonderful.

Excellent capture!!

What became of the Naess Crusader?

A.Davey She went through various changes of name and ownership until she was broken up in 1998 at Chittagong, Bangladesh.

An excellent series of photos, is there anything similar for the Tyne shipyards?

Hutchy99 Glad you like them. There are similar progress shots for Tyne shipyards. You can see a few for the 'Mauretania' in this set www.flickr.com/photos/twm_news/albums/72157625339949452.
