Aaron Bauer has been the supervisor on many of the Beaver Creek projects I would assume he is the keystone super too, but I haven't run into him or any of the usual colorado crew for over a year so your gess is as good as my own.

Wow, I haven't seen an aerial tram that has a load platform that moves back and forth between the two loading areas.

I'm not a big fan of this design either, although I've seen the end sections have glass windows instead of just fans. However, this is a large system so if it's not a top drive vault system, I would expect the fans.

That would be insanely cool, but alas I don't think that's the way it will be.

Then, you would be mistaken, dude. The bottom dock does indeed move to accommodate either car, so if car one is going up, the dock would move to the south side (right hand side in the photo) so car two could dock on the northside. As I understand it, this has been done in Europe. And Dino, I think the line sheaves are 550mm...Tram Mechanic can say for sure.

I see, it looks like the space needed for two docks would be wider than the loading area. Neat design, I can't wait to see it in action.

It looks like this design saved the restaurant next to the tram.

I presume the top terminal works the same way

They are CWA cabins like those on the Texas Skyway built last year. The model is Ethos, as opposed to the Conus or Omega.

Interesting UNI-G. It's almost like the French UNI-G, but still retains the same shape. As for the cabins, they're great to look from, but to look at... :thumbdown:

Hey Cameron, the top terminal has space for both cars to have their own dock.
