When it was convenient, the sugar company would pull equipment, even pipes, from one mill for another.

A wrecked pressure gauge and employee time cards.

Counter-weighted ore cars alternately filled and emptied to feed Furnace 7. Honestly, though, the corner-mounted cranes are sexier in my opinion. Note the trees growing from the stacks.
