 @bud_t @ingalls @Edwin085 @BakerRL75 Google Street View cameras not working so well in the cave, following a (!) tour bus. @bud_t @ingalls @Edwin085 @BakerRL75 Not this drive through cave, either (in France, Mas d'Azil Cave) https://earth.google.com/web/search/Mas+d%27Azil+grotte/@43.0712489,1.35637491,308.79330444a,0d,60y,249.72330829h,102.45709952t,0r/data=CnwaUhJMCiUweDEyYWYyZjVjYjhkOGMyM2Q6MHg1MzIwODhiNjhlY2NkM2JlGUS7r2_MiEVAIeBoIscxrfU_KhFNYXMgZCdBemlsIGdyb3R0ZRgBIAEiJgokCXYzp9UV6EDAEWo-hjuz6UDAGYSq0S7ywGJAIXIc4Mt-wGJAIhoKFkViSEladGNCTHFQMTFMbXI4MzdiZUEQAg @ai6yr Then of course there is Natural Tunnel in Virginia, which carries a rail line through a cave https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_Tunnel_State_Park  the era those cars were being dumped in there (rather than correctly processing them as scrap metal and recycling whatever could be reused) ties in with exactly when Thatcho's government was trying to promote the Welsh Development Board and lots of industries (mostly manufacturing and tech) setting up in Wales - all seeking short term profit without giving a shit about the environment or anything else..  @ai6yr @bud_t @ingalls @Edwin085 @BakerRL75 Why is that concerning? The Jenolan Caves road/tunnel is designed to handles buses (source: me, who took a bus there the only time I've visited) |
@bud_t @ingalls @Edwin085 @BakerRL75 Even more concerning... there appear to be many paved caves with roads through them. This one is in NSW, Australia here (not the one above) - Jenolan Caves: https://earth.google.com/web/search/-33.8188433,150.019201/@-33.81953229,150.0220408,792.73114014a,0d,60y,78.91511563h,92.36631193t,0r/data=CloaMBIqGTwGddvP6EDAIZ1hakudwGJAKhYtMzMuODE4ODQzMywxNTAuMDE5MjAxGAEgASImCiQJDss_B1ffNEARfMLEf0TfNEAZZFdvU6-VY8Ah9l8wgLGVY8AiGgoWWUVhUHZnUm9UTmhNa2ZLMlNRdXNxURAC
