@1638490 possibly to keep the tower lights running. Some parts of the station (and all the power generating machinery of course) is isolated, but in the majority of the rooms you can flick the light switches and they still work. It's really quite odd. Demolition is actually in progress now of the oil storage tanks, but as far as I know there is still power.
photos are amazing, hats off to you. could spend months photographing in there, is there no security? thought the place would have been down by now, will be a real shame. would have loved to go!
@608pollock I just wish I was alive when the station was in use. By the time I had arrived in Scotland in 1993 it had long stopped working, and I was still a toddler! Imagining is the best thing I can do...
@SPTSuperSprinter156 but some lights on the central control console are still on? weird, thanks for the reply :D thumbs up
