Our quest continued. With little choice in where to look, we headed back to the drains we failed to access prior. Our extra efforts were not in vain!   .....

Its irritating when you know something exists, but you've no idea where to start looking. Even London once contained three such features. Pt.1   .....

I always detest writing, video editing however, is a different matter. So this time, instead of stories
of parisian activities, you get to watch this video

Optimus Prime was first discovered by Userscott and Stepping lightly whilst on there quest for Manchester's underground crypts and chamber, but surprisingly enough they never really thought twice about the monster tunnel we stood in. It was always just a means to an end.

Running for roughly 1km underneath Manchester and passing straight under Victoria station prime boasts several features from days of old such as old cattle bridges and more importantly a morgue shaft. Ie where the dead cattle were loaded onto the barges after having the meat sold.

The infall is a large weir bringing the water flow down two meters before sending it along the tunnel. The only problem here is there is a large quantity of water and even the slightest bit of rain sends it into overdrive meaning crossing the flow is nigh on impossible.

We had two trips down here but sadly due to severe negligence on my part all pictures from the first trip were lost!, although i have a feeling they might surface in later years when a wayward traveler stumbles across the memory card.

But the question is now, which one is the winner?. Megatron?, or Optimus Prime?.
