I have to admit that I was disappointed in the tour.  When I was a kid I
visited the plant on the American side and they let you walk down on the
actual floor and see operating equipment... they had one generator torn
down and you could see how the brushes were honeycombed to reduce skin
effect. (at 60 Hz!)  It was very, very cool.  Forty years later the
American side was totally locked down and the Canadian plant had a tour
where you could look through a window and talk to someone who couldn't
answer any questions.

Ah! The 50's!

To me the most amazing thing about the Falls are the tunnels under the
Falls on the Canadian side. There's even a hallway (roughly 15' x 15'
in size) where there's only a small standard railing preventing you
from running out into the midst of the Falls (which would obviously be
fatal) and no guards.

Well, I suppose that's one way to weed out the more daring children.
