Must have been disconnected as the cover is off the conduit box?
This place is immense.
Looks like a dangerous shot.
The first thing I thought of was the Batman spotlight signal...
the waterstreaks on the spotlight are artwork!
Eeek! Again, a beautiful shot!
It looks so high but at the same time the ground looks so close
It looks ginormous, like one of those searchlights they put at car lots and grand-openings. But it couldn't have been that big... just the angle, I'm sure. Still, a genius shot!
it looks like your in the middle of a jungle its so green
Look like something from a prison.
Canada, I had the same thought. I wonder why they needed a set of spotlights on top of a coal breaker? External lights for outdoor safety, sure. But these? Hmmm.

Also, what ledge did you crawl out on to get this shot, Motts? Oh my.
used to spot those pesty workers who try and leave early
That is weird. i thought you find these only in places like Hollywood, Hong Kong, and NYC
that would be so cool to hook up a generater to it and freak people out in the middle of the night
Heh heh... Stalag 13. Hogan's Heroes...
Umm, maybe aircraft caution lights, if it was at the top of the building near the roof?
The spots were used to light up the site at night. Being the complex is so massive it was necessary to make sure a great deal of it was lit. Accidents in a coal breaker were relatively low and RAC wanted to keep it that way.
