The cabinets are so old school, even the NEMA ones! I've seen this video before, and its definitely interesting to watch for someone like myself that enjoys seeing the technology and options available for large-scale signal systems/control. :thumbsup: I'd safely assume this was shot in the early 80's

Not outside driving range, however, my vacation schedule won't permit me the privilege. I also work nights and weekends. It's on my bucket list along with a Carrier & Gable junket. Sorry.
