I've spent over 12 hours in 3 visits there and I'm still not done. I've taken about 500 stills and 30 mins of video footage. I'll be returning at least one more time, perhaps two if I can make it. BTW, I actually do have permission to be there. 
Here's a pic of some retro electrics... I wonder what happened to the guy who drilled the asbestos sheet wall to install it. Note also the blast wall to the left.

Nice stuff again. What's your position to have access?
Access is a weird thing. Some things that SHOULD be locked up never are, and other things that aren't should be.
I've done quite a bit of BW stuff - some locations they're really sensitive over, others they're not.
In this situ, this building is also government owned- and commonwealth trespass is a criminal offence, not a tort like regular trespass.
One of those things, I guess.
We had the reflection a while ago, it's all a little bit weird - going to such extreme lengths / risks just to take photos - it's very harmless, but you'd never get away with it :D
