Mice! Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Watching an Episode series 2, episode 4 and wow. Their in Pittsburgh looking at Abandoned steel works, one facility was apparently producing more steel during WW2 than Great Britain? That seems nuts, they had a "hot metal bridge " which had a 180 tonnes of molten steel going over it every single hour. And the Pittsburgh region was out producing the axis powers. Now I know why the American football team are called the Pittsburgh Steelers. Great series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
