Drive is in the bush..Tension isnt..

Looks nice when the gondolas comes out of the bush.

You have 14 new CWA cabins. Is that the max. number of cabins or do you want to built more?

[vonroll101]

Ill be building 48 gondolas.I only have 14 built for now.Max capacity on the ride is 36 gondolas.I also contacted CWA and sent them a few pics.They like them alot.Ram-Brand,In your country ,what do the fellow members say about me?I mean being from The USA we dont have alot of model builders here.I appreciate your comments about my model VR101.Thanks again Robert

Your modell is great! Well, I don't really like this strange troll puppets which you put in as passengers, but this is a question of personal taste and not a judgement about your abilities as a modell builder!

Btw, Was it you who I sent a CD with Von Roll pixs?

Sorry Robert but i have to agree GMD´s opinion cause your passengers are really looking a little bit crazy...

Yes it was..Great pics of Vonroll Lifts!!.Im looking for actual small people to put in them.Those are the Treasure trolls from the mid 1990s.I have about 500 of them.Thanks for all the kind words Markus..You helped me with something many years ago and to this day they work great..The grips!Soon i might ask you to order me some more as I might have a order for one full length model vr101 that will be some 200 feet long with 7 towers and 68 gondolas.I estimate the cost of this model will be around 5,000 us dollars.

The production of this kind of grips unfortunately had been stopped a few years ago but last year i had the chance to buy a greater amount of them from an bancrupt trading company so i still have about 1000 pieces in stock...
So it will be no problem to send some to you if they were needed...

[vonroll101]

[GMD]

Why?

[vonroll101]

Why?

Why?Dont understand.Skyride fans here in the usa are buying them..

[GMD]

Oh, you make new ones? I thought you will sell the existing gondolas and I feared the end of your fantastic modell!

[vonroll101]

Thanks GMD..I have all 40 made for my Vonroll model.Now im making them for people that want them.The San Diego Zoo bought one as well.I have a order after the new year for a beginner model builder that also loves the VR101 Amusement park Skyrides.Im also developing a CWA gondola of the same type that has the plexiglass windows..Merry Christmas..

[GMD]

Puh (wipes sweat away), I am happy to hear that you will not scrap your modell! The alarm bell was ringing when I read about your gondola offer because I thought you have to remove the skyride in your garden and sell it now in pieces!

[Petz]

As far as i know at one time in the past Robert had to transfer his Von Roll cableway to another place cause he had to leave the land the VR had been built up. In that period of time the possibility of an abadonment existed but fortunately he found another location to continue his great work.

[vonroll101]

Your correct Markus.My previous model VR101 was taken down in 2006.This one was all new built in 2005.The other wasnt that high of capacity compaired to this one.No worries as to this Vonroll model being taken down.
