Table Mountain maintenance shutdown 2013

Cableway Closed for 5 weeks
No way through

More space needed.
The beginning of a new viewing point
Construction site
Mapping out the shutdown

The work begins.
Attention given to the tiniest of detail.
Beware!
Tools of the trade.

No job too small.
Guiding wheels.
Swiss Engineering firm.
Nowhere to go.

Making way for the new.
No parking for the moment.
No small undertaking.
The experts inspect.

All hands on deck.
A vital tool.
A tea time snack.
Nuts and bolts.

Local experts.
The driving wheel.
Cables.
Making sure everything fits.

A local artisan.
Bolts.
A natural wonder.
In the pit.

Thinking and working.
Adjusting.
An expert mechanic.
About to be lifted.

Gymnastics.
Heave to!
Suspended.
Making sure.

Aligning up.
The cold mist creeps in.
An electrical genius.
Misspelt

Connecting the dots.
A suspended view.
A suspended view.
A long pull ahead.

The anchor.
Connecting the old and the new.
An insect viewpoint.
Rollers.

Pulling and pulling.
The important connection
Framed suspension.
Nearing completion

Craftsmen at work.
Waiting in turn.
Knowledgable youngster
Standing out.

Harnessed to the hilt.
Hooks and chains.
Working and holding.
A natural office.

A suspended balcony.
Teamwork.
Circus act.
Tight rope walking.

Adjusting while harnessed.
The bleakness of winter.
Static and motion.
The building continues

Almost finished, un-interupted views
The arm.
Ensuing cleanliness.
Up it goes.

In it goes.
So much power.
Into position.
Insignia.
