Old VP and TMAX developer

[Alan Gage]

Got an old roll of Verichrome Pan 127 I found in a camera. Gonna develop it at the local college's darkroom and they use TMAX developer. Never used TMAX before, any advice for times with this old roll?

Guess I'll just use the tried and true, "Treat it like Tri-X".

Alan, IIRC,  Verichrome Pan was more or less the same as Plus-X from the point of view of developing times. It had more latitude IIRC.  

As for the old/expired film issue, you'll probably want to use the developer as concentrated as possible. Amirko posted some suggestions in a thread here but I can't find it now; something about keeping the temperature quite down to reduce fog and using HC-110.  

You should get usable results if you treat VP as Plus-X.
