There is a chappy who has done some photo galleries of the above. Not bad.

I know; I am trying to imagine the Colonel with a flame-thrower. :lol: Interesting results though.

I rather liked his comment about the Dolomite mine at Sala:

"Today, a small part of the mine is open to the public - it is a nice experience. However, an even nicer experience can be found at other sections of the mine - outside the "common path".

Bells started ringing 😮

Some of thr photos were very interesting though.

Look at that... Immaculate machinery from 1970's! Just imagine that in England...It would be reduced to a few broken shards within a week!
