概要
クイックファクト: 1905年に製造された12,000トンのリバー・ドン・エンジンは、製鉄所全体を動かすほどの出力を持ち、現在も実演運転では毎分11回転で作動しています。ケラム島は12世紀に製粉所の水車を動かすために造られた人工島で、後にシェフィールドの産業革命の中心地となりました。
見どころ: リバー・ドン・エンジンの実演はまさに劇場そのものです。12,000トンのビクトリア式機械が轟音とともに動き出し、足元の床が揺れます。そのすぐ近くに立って、熱を感じ、油の匂いを嗅ぎながら、前進と逆転を息をのむような力強さで繰り返す様子を目にすることができます。
インサイダーヒント
- Stand near the front during the River Don Engine demo to feel the heat and vibration, but cover your ears, it's genuinely loud.
- The Little Mesters workshop area upstairs shows actual craftspeople at work, check the board for live demo times.
- Combine your visit with the nearby Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet for a full day of Sheffield's industrial history.
- The cafe does a decent sandwich, but the Kelham Island neighborhood has several excellent craft breweries for post-visit pints.
