A very impressive place to look around, but it gets interminably boring if you're forced to hang around waiting for 4 hours or so - you can "do" the whole place in about 1 hour. The purple of the camshaft alternates between deep purple and silver and is interspersed with blasts of steam, quite fascinating to watch. Not a place for claustrophobes, it's dark, very close and underground.
