Hi, For some reason I am interested in the uplift equipment installed at the various Scottish Ski Centres.

Is it possible to get info on

* When installed
* Manufacturer
* Brand new or second hand
* Status
* Last used
* Removed
* Plans
* Current issues
* Interesting additional information

For example:

Nevis Range Gondola:

* When installed - 1989
* Manufacturer - Doppelmayr
* Brand new or second hand - New
* Status - Operational
* Last used - In use
* Removed - NA
* Plans - ???????
* Current issues - None
* Interesting additional information - The only one of it's sort in Scotland, ski racks on outside are too small for modern skis
