Coal and electricity megamix, Belgium/Germany - March 2012

[thompski]

Derping is allegedly a big faux pas these days, though everyone knows coal mines and power stations are metal as fuck, so I felt such exploits from a recent trip to Europe were worth sticking up.

Mortal Decay and I met up with two Dutch explorers after a big party in Antwerp and headed to this coal fired 1960s power station which closed three years ago.

Dirty ass colliery in Germany, a cracking pitbank made up the lack of Forderturm ascension on this occasion. Coal is awesome, shit lighting ist not.

Not many from here, didn't get many decent pictures. Pretty nice power station, very 'Brick cathedral' which I'm quite fond of.
