Some generation stations can double as enrichment plants pretty easily,
Iain. Scientific American had a pretty good article on that in the last
year or so, in the light of the India vs. Pakistan arms race.

I've tried making cooling towers out of Lego before, but at the scale of
the
train layout we have, they look too chunky, to my eyes.
And without the cooling towers, it's just a couple of buildings with
domed
roofs and radioactive spiders coming out the back door.
Anyone know of an example of a reactor done in Lego? Otherwise my
ABS-burning
plant will stay in operation - the smokestacks are evocative.
