Another fun fact bout Gordon dam there’s no rio in it, it’s all concrete. The way it’s double concave gives its strength. Also there’s a series of plumbobs inside the wall to measure deflection to see how much water pressure forcing on the wall. Interesting history there and the power station insane also.

The power station is awesome, thought we might get a look, well worth seeing

@@davebarns1 yea ya only see a small percentage of what’s actually there. Up top is basically a workshop and offices the real wonder is 28-29 stories below ground where the turbines are it’s a impressive site. They normally run a open day where the public can go look. I’ve worked there before doing turbine repairs and other maintenance outages. Pretty impressive.

Yeh really? Wow i didn’t expect that, i got up & stepped out 18meters in my hallway & was think’n Faaaaark imagine how much rio is in that it’d be insane. Now ya say there’s non, must be a strong concrete mix’n plenty of rocks & some full-on foundations.. Still a excellent engineering feat for Oz🇦🇺 especially for 1972-74 & still stand’n strong.

They tidy up saw back range about every 3 to 4 years to try and keep it in a condition that isn't flogged out so stockish cars can run through there, last one was maybe 18 months ago, also being key system helps keep the track from getting flogged like most of the other tracks down here too

Kye us turning out to be the off sider galore and always a camera in hand he should have his own channel to show other kids how it can done
