  • They didn't reverse the pole - it's facing forward!

  • Cool, thanks for the info!

  • It's about a half-mile track, about 20 minutes total trip time. The fare is $2, operating on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

  • Nice coverage there! I haven't been on that line yet, is it about the same length as the Como-Harriet one?
