Fog horn building
The interior of the fog horn building was completely painted. It looks fantastic. Photographs do not do it justice. A few little finishing touches here and there remain to be accomplished.
It is a dream of ours to refurbish the fog horn equipment and get it working again. The manufacturers of the diesel engines (Lister), and the compressors (Ingersol Rand), were contacted. Ingersol Rand has forwarded a parts list. I was amazed the parts are still available. The piping needs to be checked, the resonator needs to be taken apart, and the air exchange tanks need to be pressure tested. And of course, government approvals are needed. An organization in the U.S. dedicated to horns & whistles has offered their expertise.
Think of it, a working diaphone!
