Guys, I am curious: When the River Run Gondola was replaced, what did Keystone do to their underground carrier parking facility? Was it modified to meet the requirements of the new R. Run? Or was a new one built for River Run?

Yes the underground parking was reworked ( all old Von-Roll rails removed / modified and new Doppelmayr equipment installed to accept the new grips / cabins ). And was the last thing finished if I recall.

And it is never done - but it works. The new "compact" feed/park rail is slow to remove a cabin. Just over 3 minutes to pull a cabin off, and that's with Michael J at the helm.

Anything is possible when you don't understand what you are talking about.
