The scheduled date for the start of the turbine operation at Trattendorf,
1
was met only by using every available pair of hands. The turbine ran on 17 December
for exactly twenty-five minutes. The entire structure was built on a
temporary basis and will have to be entirely reconstructed for the
actual permanent operation of the turbine, which is expected to start in
late February 1955.
2. The first running of the turbine was filmed by representatives of DEPA.
