RIOC is reporting a Roosevelt Island Tram advisory for Sunday in order to perform cabin rescue and evacuation drills.

Tram Advisory

Schedule Change

On Sunday, April 26th 2009, the Tramway will be shutdown from;
6:00 am. to 2:00 pm.

This schedule change is necessary in order to perform the cabin rescue and evacuation drill.

On the topic of the Tram, RIOC President Steve Shane forwards the latest images of the new Roosevelt Island Tram Cabin design. Happily, the Roosevelt Island Tram signage is included on the cabin side but do we really need the RIOC logo on the side as well? What purpose does placement of the RIOC logo on the Tram side serve other than promoting a NY State Corporation? If a Corporate logo is to be placed on the Tram Cabin side, at least try to sell these rights to a private corporation so that it might generate some revenue for Roosevelt Island. (A caveat - The NYC Council banned advertising on the Roosevelt Island Tram in 2001)
