The little grey box

Featured Replies

Hi everyone, I have a situation.... In a lot of photos, I have seen this little box float up and down the Tower, but the only thing that can think of for what this does is some kind of maintenance shaft? Does STE have one of these though? Please help!

Also i wonder how it would get up the tower? I doubt it would use TOT Lim or LSM System. Because if it was a Maintenence car, the Maint People would have Buckliest chance of getting off the Gondola in time safely before it ran back down the tower.

I have been told that the car is winched into place and is used for maintainence on the tower and ride. Not sure where the winch is, either onboard the car or built into the tower. Info comes from a sparky mate who used to work at the park.
