Poolbeg Control Room Panoramic - AKA - Homers Desk...

Since the whole desk is here I thought I'd point it out... This is the part of the desk where my close up of the "23" was taken!

An out of use control system for Poolbeg Power Station. Had lots of flashing lights on it...

The temptation to push buttons on this thing was overwhelming

Could'nt stop thinking about the the film "The China Syndrome"

Very good - the light is great for this shot. I couldn't help but think of a certain Mr. Simpson when we were in there ;)

I thought it looked like a set from a James Bond movie- all that was missing was a bold guy stroking a cat.

Yes, in comparison the control room from the new station was uninspiring. How can a few monitors, a mouse and keyboard compete?
