Snowy scheme
The first large generators installed in the Snowy Hydro scheme were British made . But the SMHEA quickly changed over to Japanese manufactured generaters , probably for cost reasons . MIKE

G'day All, Life was simpler back then, I noticed that no-one had any safety glasses, nor steel capped boots, OH&S can be a damn nuisance, but personally I would not turn anything on my lathe without them, great site and pictures, shame it's all history now, thanks for posting the link, cheers Dennis
