Just looked at the links. You'll likely have the best photo!

Still looking for my site, but nothing I can recall in this area compares with that; at least nothing where I can place the bike and get a decent shot.

OK, here's my entry. This is the defunct Mitchell power station, owned by First Energy and located in Union Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, near New Eagle. This coal-fired plant was shut down in 2013, supposedly because it would be too expensive to update the emission control equipment.

Well, this is non competitive, as I don't own a CB1100 anymore.

However, inspired by this month's photo challenge I took these pictures at a visit of my home town in the Ruhr area (old industrial area in Germany). I thought you might enjoy.

Chemical factory in the north of Castrop-Rauxel:

Abandoned town hall of Castrop-Rauxel (they have a new and bigger one for about 40 years now):

In this house I had my first own flat 40 years ago:

This is the air duct of an underground coal mine (Erin). The coal mine closed 1983.
