Looking as though it’s about to be dumped into the Clackamas River is this 17-ton generator rotor. Actually, the big wheel is
being backed into an unloading position at Portland General Elect ic company’s Faraday powerhouse located three miles above
here. It will be installed in the new generating unit now being constructed which will add 25,000 kilowats to the existing 19,000
kilowatt plant. The rotor stands two stories high and is the larg st of its type ever built in the West.
