Guys and Girls,

I'm curious to know of any pre Omega terminals with 2 Diesel engines and 2 elec drives in NON VAULT drive lifts.

There may be others. I imagine if the terminal was big enough, like Bridger's, it was done. Those lifts that have vault drives were either too old (terminal design not roomy enough) or needed more horsepower than what could be shoved in an overhead terminal.
