    Opsec precludes me from saying more than 'somewhere in Southern England'.

    Looks like Cretaceous chalk on downland, probably coastal.

    It was like that when I got here.

    If you can't take a joke, you shouldn't have joined.

    The old Michigan Central Station. Fantastic building, so sad to see it being neglected and run down. Much like a lot of the buildings in Detroit, really.

    Fun fact about MCS: Was the tallest train station in the world at the time of construction.



    Info about MCS:

    Michigan Central Station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    For anyone wanting to see a few more photos of MCS:

    If you have a bit more time, interested in other Detroit buildings:

    Is that one 'Self Taken' then?
    I didn't say it was your fucking fault, I said I was blaming you.

    I'm only responsible for what I say...not what you understand.

    From some things I've seen on TV recently, Detroit seems to be turning into something only one step up from Berlin in 1945 at the minute. There appears to be more abandoned and derelict buildings than there are occupied ones.

    Is it really that bad or TV stations exaggerating a bit?
