Thanks for the link Ken. Coming from an engineering background I find the photo's and descriptions just food for my brain. It was completed around the time I was born.

Thanks Ken, I enjoyed seeing the pictures and drawings. Such an amazing engineering achievement for it's time.

I got a private tour in 1986. What a rush!
