I had a couple photos of trams or funiculars hauling snowcats. One came from the Pisten Bully calendar a few years ago and was taken near the top as the car broke over a tower, and I had another that was taken near the bottom of the lift and you could see a european village in the background. The snowcat was strapped underneath the cabin...

Anyway, they rebuilt my PC and I lost the photos :wacko2: . Could someone post them here? :helpsmilie:

Thanks,
Steve

That is very awesome.

I'm not sure where it was taken, somewhere in europe for sure. It was in the Pisten Bully calendar a couple (few) years ago. I had another one where it was taken at the bottom of a similar lift and you could see the cabin and snowcar underneath with the village in the background so keep your eyes peeled for that one or others if you find them I'm interested! :smile:

I've seen a couple of the Cannon Mt, NH tram hauling old Thiokols up the lift line. If I find one, I will try to post it.

Doppelmayr / CTEC has a nice picture of the Snowbird Tram hauling the Mineral Basin Express contour hanging in their offices in Salt Lake City.
