2. Crushing plant
colourline

dm-pia_montola05 Dolomite limestone inside one silo.
dm-pia_montola12 The crushing plant isn't the most lethal building ever, but falling into these silos would still hurt.
dm-pia_montola04 One door for crane, one door for accessing the ladders outside.
dm-pia_montola09 The ladder down from the door.
dm-pia_montola03 Lot of the original machines are actually still in the crushing buildings. Old conveyors like this haven't been valuable enough to be recycled.
dm-pia_montola01 From the traces, one could conclude that deconstructors of the electrical devices came from Turku. They haven't unscrewed the switchboxes open, instead the metal housings have been smashed to get fuses and other stuff out. And like you see, spare fuses were not removed. Anyway, peace out to South-West. =)
dm-pia_montola02 There's a chance to go to the "balcony", which we bailed out.
dm-pia_montola06 One of the few control boxes in the plant.
dm-pia_montola07 This corner is lacking something.
dm-pia_montola08 Top room and one guy some 30 years late.
dm-pia_montola10 Cable?
dm-pia_montola13 End of the conveyor, which goes all through the inclined passage.
dm-pia_montola14 Possibly some sort of ventilation hole with a slidable shutter hides a space behind it. It's actually a small cabin. A perfect nesting place!
dm-pia_montola16 The rusty thing seen from the passage.
dm-pia_montola17 Reels beneath the rubber belt are numbered. Number 78 is on top.
dm-pia_montola15 And here the passage looking falsely bright. It is actually quite dim, since the window holes are masked by trees.
dm-pia_montola18 Nothing left of windows. Just the holes.
dm-pia_montola19 View from ground level. To our surprise, the passage continued also slightly underground.
dm-pia_montola20 Whirl underground.
dm-pia_montola27 Bottom end of the conveyor. It is below ground, since it has conveyed stuff fed from above, which is ground level.
dm-pia_montola25 What on earth are these rusty balls? There was water on bottom the tunnel's concrete end so we didn't go and pick any, but they sure look strange.
dm-pia_montola28 The feeder thing in pitch black end of the passage, which has converted to a tunnel.
dm-pia_montola29 Somewhat heavy chains between the feeder and belt. Bright daylight shines from above.
