Twr Babl Incline Remains - Dec '09

Viewed from Cribau. Twr Babl was the second part of the 1895 untopping scheme. Originally designed for four tracks and no less than 6 boilers(!) though probably only two were installed, it was also electrified in 1906, but did not last long. Even the Oakeley management described it as a 'white elephant.'
