A view of the turbine hall at Dolgarrog hydro-electric power station, showing the water-inlet pipes and turbines of Units 2 (left) and 3. The generator of Unit 2 is the square box at the left of the image, while that of Unit 3 is just out of the frame. These machines are operated from the high-head pipeline from Llyn Cowlyd, and were on load at the time of imaging.
