    Most likely the space is in case of accumulation. If the guy receiving the finished loaves has to go take a leak the conveyor fills up until he gets back... hopefully after thoroughly washing his hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and warm water. Sorry, reverted to my Food Safety / Safety Manager role!

    When viewing old stuff like this I usually think of the technology available at the time, and how great it was.
    Then I found this and was saddened.

    She's now a National Archeological site, artificial reef and a popular diving location. A much better fate than being sent to the breakers, I'd think.
