I like the Sigma SP4-6's and SP76's the best, they are truly proper gondola cabins, they look just as beautiful and shiny as a 1960's classic car for crying out loud!
0:09 JESUS CHRIST I'm so angry that Medran 1 was taken down. I was at Verbier yesterday and I kicked the modern replacement's pylons out of hatred for modern 10-passenger gondola lifts. And I also made pictures of myself dropping the middle finger at it as D-Lines are shit lifts compared to old 1980's beauties and other 20th-century mechanical masterpieces of ropeways... D-Lines will be bombed eventually. I won't stand for Doppelmayr's mass digitalization programme at all and I'll bloody well tell them to stay off the mountains ONCE AND FOR ALL and leave the old ropeways to keep the mountains as alpine as they are(as long as they have 20th-century ropeways that is).
Times are changing and new technology is evolving everywhere. Ropeways aren't made for hundreds of years and material wear is unavoidable, which means that ower time some stressed parts aren't good anymore and replacing parts (e.g. towers) is just not efficient. Even with proper maintenance, faults can happen at any time and we can never predict them. New ropeways are a product of many years of development as it was the same for old ones in their time. Doppelmayr is the best ropeway manufacturer in my opinion and their new technology amazes me every time I see it.
@@sunpeakmodelropeways4310 Times changing is no excuse to force everything to be monopolized and all the same, and all this "new technology" is just the same old digital computerized bullshit taking over the world over and over again forcing everything to be glassy, city-like and digital and to have absolutely NO soul and NO character and NOTHING DIFFERENT to somewhere like London or New York or something, or other high-tech digitalized places. The mountains are old-fashioned traditional places and should therefore never be frankensteined by digital city-like un-alpine modern scrap heaps of ropeways. You may be very well right with regards to maintenance, but the mountains should STAY alpine, and that only happens with 20th-century ropeways. With regards to favourite ropeway manufacturers, mine is Poma from 1936-2005, especially their "S-type" detachable systems made from 1966 until 1982. I grew up with the first one, built in Val D'Isere and they have never ceased to put a smile or some positive emotion on me, out of all the mechanical beauty they have. Old 1960's-1990's Doppelmayr lifts are good too. The Uni-G on the other hand is absolutely boring and the D-Line is nothing more than a disgrace to every single mountain on this cursed planet filled with mainstream digital-obsessed blyats and that includes Doppelmayr, Leitner, Poma and Bartholet, being the monopolistic demons that they are. Other favourite manufactures and systems of mine include Von Roll, Giovanola, Pohlig/PHB, Wallmannsberger(Bell Maschinenfabrik), GMD Muller, and others which actually know how to make proper ropeways, unlike Leitner, Doppelmayr, Poma and Bartholet who do not.

All look the same same shape
But there are a lot of differences between them :)
@@sunpeakmodelropeways4310 not the shape of them. Same overall shape.
@@@vonrollskyway1 If there would be the other shape, it wouldn't be unforgetful OMEGA anymore...
anyway, thanks a lot for comment ;)
Some Von Roll lifts have these cabins.

I like Sigma better than CWA
