Is there anywhere in the world where such machines are still being used?

Not being used, but I visited an old shipyard last week, and they still
had some old machinery rusting away. One lathe I paced out was about 40
yards long from end to end. There was also the biggest shaper I've ever
seen - at least I think it's a shaper - about 20 foot tall.
