No, that's Meier Michael's work I believe. I remember seeing that same terminal on his site.

:offtopic: To return to the original topic. I believe what we have here is a Pullman-Berry lift. When Stadeli's original importer based in NY lost the rights to import to The Waterville Valley Corporation around 1970, they began building Pullman-Berry lifts. This company was somehow related to the Pullman train company. This chair looks exactly like one they built in PA. I think butternut Ma may have had one at some point as well.

I don't think any floating bulwheels have been installed recently except for surface lifts.

Yes I do Tyler, here is Saddleback at Deer Valley. There are a few things I needed to touch up on, such as the color of the snow.

Okay, here are the pictures I said I would post of a high-speed double in another thread. I didn't want to go off topic so here they are. All pictures I'm about to post are Meier Michaels.
