These very cool gauges were found on the end of the steam engine which I showed you yesterday from the High Level Pumping Station. There is something fascinating about a control panel like this don't you think!
I do think so... Just for the functional beauty and how well they are made. My husband, who kind of understands what they are supposed to do, would gaze at them for hours figuring out how thy worked!
Amazing that that old pump is still working!
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful gauges. All the needles are pointed to a safe place.
ReplyDeleteGreat details !!!
ReplyDeleteI love it. It's interesting how big they are compared to say the control panel in an aircraft.
ReplyDeletei could see that as someone's house decoration. :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly seems to pull you into the past.
ReplyDeleteit is an old machine over 100 years..
ReplyDeleteWhat no digital gauges in 1909? ;)

ReplyDeleteYes, I agree, just amazing!
ReplyDeleteYes it is fascinating and beautiful in its own way..
ReplyDeleteGreat shot!
ReplyDeleteThey look very elegant too, like vintage barometers!
ReplyDeleteThey look artistic.
ReplyDeleteThey do look fabulous Pat, old machinery always looks so much more attractive than modern don't you think :)
ReplyDeleteThis is the kind of control panel that makes me want to stand there a while and check each gauge out.
ReplyDeleteKinda funny shot.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Rather reminds me of a plane's cockpit!
ReplyDeleteLooks like quality.
