These old fluoro tubes may be interesting to some lighting enthusiasts._

How did you pump the place out? It was full of water almost to the surface when I was a kid.

It looks like your collimator room might be intact on that level, I wonder if you still have a collimator in place for the missile inertail guidance system? I have never seen any post-operational images from that room as they are usually inaccessible, or dangerous to access. Thanks for sharing further videos its great to see the pumping going well.

Very cool to see the bottom. I guess yours is the only Plattburgh Atlas F silo where level 8 is not flooded? It will be interesting to see how quickly it re-fills. Thanks for sharing the latest videos of your progress with the pumping.

He's only bloody gone and done it! Pumped it out! Well done mate fantastic work and thanks for the video's, are you going to swing the pump about to get a bit more water out from the sump area?

Cheers for the update from Sussex England 👍🏻

The sheer scale of that thing is mind blowing! Thank you for sharing this journey - I am really enjoying the big reveal as the waters recede.

I live a mile form the Titan Missile Museum outside of Tucson, AZ. It is so sad that no one thought to save one as a Museum. What is your plan for yours? Thanks for sharing.

0:17 - Don't blame ya! Fascinating, thanks for sharing.

Boy howdy you've pumped a lot of water out of that sucker

Truly an engineering marvel

Happy New Year and good health to you from Devon, England, thanks for the update!

So cool that it seems still pretty solid structure down there

Happy New Year and thank you for the update.

Happy new year, keep up the good work

You should turn the lowest level into a heated pool.

Really cool! Need any help?

Super cool and intresting!

This is where the EG4 lineup would shine. Several of their inverters come with smart load management. From what I understand you can pull 50-80amps 240V on them.

It's so cool to see the progress with the water level compared to when you let me have a look around this summer! Nice! 😁

great video - love the Stevie and Raymond inclusion!!

This is the coolest discovery ever

Stay safe!! Harness, gas detector and no lone working preferably! :o

Looks like the project is coming along well! Amazing content.

Thanks for the update!

Hey there! Would you be interested in doing an interview about the silo?

I'm having gps problems with my pixel 7pro. Any solutions?

AWSOME

So fascinating

Fantastic video thanks for the update, pleeeease be careful down there!

Jeez Steve take care xxx

Thanks for the update. Good luck with your continued works on the site. Hopefully the water ingress rate wont change when you reach 80ft.

Wow! About... 1/3 dry now?

Is there a way to stop by and see you? I am in that area regularly.

So I heard from one of the other silo owners that the steel I-Beams under the Silo Cap Doors were used for closing them. The hydrolics were removed with the doors open and I-beams were placed across with wooden boards and large amounts of hay bales over them. The Doors were then pushed onto the hay by heavy equipment with the hay then lit on fire. As everything burned, the doors slowly closed into position with only the I-beams remaining under them. The I-beams were possibly bent from the extreme heat. Reply

wow WOW *WOW* , incredible!!! My cousin's family and I always go up to the Adirondacks every year for a weekend or so and this year just by chance we're doing an Airbnb in Willsboro. I was having a look around google maps and noticed an ICBM site literally across the street! After a bit sleuthing on here I was shocked to find this amazing record of the site's current rehabilitation! We're kind of into nuclear technology and history and it would be absolutely amazing for us to be able to see the site. Is there any possibility at all that we could stop by and have a quick peek around? Do you have an email address I could contact you at? There are only 5 of us total and we would of course be very respectful of your time and property if we had the chance to stop by. Thanks much for all the interesting video of the work you are doing at the site here!

Do you know if the escape tunnel/shaft still has the 3 tons of sand? Would be good to know if you ever decide to open it!

Why was a shaft drilled into the tunnel?

This is absolutely amazing! I suspected the LCC and crib were still intact. This one is gonna be quite similar to Brainardsville! Great work!

Wow. I thought I took on crazy projects but you take first prize in that contest. I would LOVE to reclaim a silo, but my budget would never keep pace with my impatience to just get it done. I can't imagine the cost of buying, draining, gutting and restoring or reclaiming the space for new uses. Kudos to you and yes, I subscribed. :)

Keep it rusty, you’ll never be able to get back such a cool asthetic like that no matter how hard you try. Sure, turn one level into something livable but try and leave the rest. The atmosphere in there is just incredible and kinda sacred.

Living my dream my dude. Subbed.

It looks like we have much to learn about building things to last, like the Egyptians and Romans did.

Tyvec suit & respirator

Great video very interesting be great to see lower levels thanks for your time 👍🏻

What is the end goal? Giant man cave? Underground survival bunker? Indoor climbing wall? Sandblast and paint everything, then fill it up with water for a really cool scuba diving tank?

Awesome. So cool. Alot of work but wow

I have no idea what the context of this video is, but wow all that rust is both scary and amazing! Im always amazed at how us humans are able to create sich structures. All the effort taken to create it and the. Just throw it away. All of it is amazing

Great progress with draining the silo - considering the level of filtration you're applying to the water you bring out I think 15 inches a day is amazing. So fascinating to see how much of the infrastructure they left behind. I guess at the end of the day there probably wasn't much of a market for it on that scale. Thanks for sharing your journey on this project.

Oh my. Looks like a lot of work. I've seen other silo projects. For me, I would want to get the water out as soon as practical and start drying things out. The humidity must be awful in there. Not good for what's left of the metal either.
