[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 4189411, member: 7900"] It's hard to envision it, but these two devices are nuclear engines that were designed to be used in bombers. It's hard to notice their function, largely because of the metal framework that is holding the two devices. Supposedly, these engines could be removed and put into another bomber. These are located at the Experimental Breeder Reactor - 1 (EBR-1), which was the world's first nuclear generating plant. EBR-1 is located south and east of Arco, Idaho. A cousin of my wife decided that we ought to go see EBR-1 because he had always wanted to go, but his wife wouldn't have been interested. (His wife was learning how to use her embroidery machine from my wife and her middle sister.) That made it easy for the two of us to go see Idaho attractions.
