Hi,

What I am adding it is not quite in the topic, but neither completely out of it.

The DC generator (the main dynamo) from the cruiser Potemkin, whose crew surrendered in Romania to avoid being punished in Imperial Russia in 1905, was still used in the 40's (all decade), maybe even in the early 50's, as the main electricity supplier for the city of Rimnicu-Sarat (Buzau county, Romania).
