I always enjoy seeing engines opened up - particularly turbines and trying to figure out the arrangement.
The turbine nearest camera looks to be of the Impulse type with a three row and a two row Curtis wheel - possibly an Astern Turbine.
The eleven row stages look to be of the Rateau type. I am thinking that the turbines may have been of the Brown-Curtis type. John Brown being a licensee of Curtis.
