Is it black & white or just changed to look like it. Either way I like it. The black & white very much reminds me of the experience of being in a refinery at night, which can be very spooky ! The last time that I worked nights at a refinery they pulled approximately sixteen carloads of asphalt per night. But the refinery was in the process of building a coking unit. I asked how many asphalt cars they would get after the new coke unit was completed and was told two or three or less per day. A refinery can make more money from coke than asphalt. Both asphalt and coke come from what's left at the bottom of the fuel process. However some refineries still will make "Bunker C" from the same lower end of the process if there is a demand for it. Bunker C is the fuel that is or was burned in Ocean Going Ships and may have been the same fuel used in Oil fired steam locomotives.
