I enjoy watching this timelapse with bird song. It took me back to my childhood. Obviously filmed when the cloud factory was in operation and I'm guessing that you're aware that 4 towers have been demolished.
When I had my own truck in the seventies I hauled hundreds of tons of fire bottom ash out of there to Crowthers Bricks in Little Lever who held the contract for removing the ashes. Surely this power station could have been converted to burn waste instead of coal and turn it into energy,there’s a waste to energy plant In Runcorn that burns waste from Manchester and Merseyside amongst others to produce electricity,it’s such a shame it had to be reduced to rubble,this has happened to other power stations just when we need all the electricity we can produce,another blunder by this crazy short sighted government,I could see the cooling towers from where I now live in Atherton,I always found the staff at Fiddlers Ferry great people and my neighbour at the static caravan park in wales we were at worked there,sad times for all the employees who worked there.
People I remember working at FFPS; The Nerve, The Head, Big Al, Spit The Dog, Lance, Mick, Dwayne and Wayne and other E Shift members. Also the coal plant used to play football at dinner time
The site was adjacent to the historic crossing, that, used a chain to cross the Mersey river via a floating raft aka ferry. An example of which can be seen in the latter part of the film A Knights Tale
I had an induction there last week, as its currently undergoing demolition, was told the first 4 towers are due to come down in December 2023 or jan 2024 latest. Be a sad day as a Warrington born and bred. 😢
Best job ever doing outages for Dunns, PCL, ABB, etc... Damn hard work. Damn good money. Damn good craic. Shame you didn't show more of the boiler house. Good shots of the mills though. Ex "boiler rat".
Thank you very much. Just read an article on Skem and that you could see Fiddlers cooling Towers from there! I wish I had made time to visit! Still looking for my kit from Fiddlers back at Penner Road!
Don’t think I would have attempted that landing but bravo for your landing on it . Be careful with cooling towers there’s a vacuum of air inside them that could just smash your drone up the sides of the inner walls . I have done the 5 abandoned cooling towers at Willington and there gigantic when your standing at the bottom of them. Great flight my friend 😊
The most henious of crimes, no one has proved global warming or climate change as it was called after there was no warming, exists. Take infrastructure where all the capital charges were paid off and destroy it. Become dependent on other countries for our energy supply. We did that in the 1950s and 60s that is why the Plan For Coal was made in the 1970s. We had collieries that only opened in the 1980s that were closed by the 2000s. Mark Twain said that history doesn't necessarily repeat itself but it often rhymes. How many will die this winter because they can't afford to heat their house?
Sería un problema menos problema si no se transportará electricidad Barcelona a máximo 39 kilometros se fabricará la suya París la suya , Moscú la suya , Valencia la suya Tarragona la suya , gerona la suya , Perpiñán la suya Producir ser muy difícil pero repartirla será también difícil ...
El metro todo con electricidad ? Cuántas ciudades alardean y presumen de metro ?? Veo problemas problemas Yo avisé que en sitios que no puedo entrar habría problemas !! Yo no visito una central eléctrica desde hace mucho pero Ji Ji Avisé y avisé ara ví un trabajador de una central y paffff sorpresa dañado como yo avise
Co2 isn't a pollutant, the UK isn't in a climate crisis and " air quality " has been drastically altered in meaning to basically include smells and 0.01% of anything. The emergency powers the government passed over christmas were all about power, control and wealth transfer and the only reason they're easing back on Covid restriction is that it has served it's function as a distraction to pass all the UN/IPCC/BuildBackBetter/GreenNewDeal/Agenda2030 and other neocommunist bills.
Great to see Manchester working class finally stand up together, time to address the gentrification of Manchester and call for revitalisation over gentrification.
Andy Burnham's wife has a connection with the company who manufacture and install the CAZ cameras all over greater manchester. He hasn't made THAT public has he ...
