At the end of one of the the turbine/generator rows at Drax power station. High pressure turbine in the centre with the large silver pipes carrying superheated steam. At the sides are the governor valves, which control the amount of steam entering the turbine, and prevent overspeeding. The Turbine will be turning at 3000 RPM.

Main boiler feed pump at Drax. This is driven by steam bled from the main turbine high pressure exhaust.
