Roosevelt Island Tram Conducting Tests And Watching Out Over Runners During NYC Marathon Sunday
Even though there were no Roosevelt Island residents riding the Tram as passengers yesterday on NYC Marathon Sunday, the Tram was still making test rides over the East River during the race and watching over the runners.
Roosevelt Island Historical Society President Judy Berdy noticed the Tram being tested, took some pictures and writes:
Though there were no passengers on the trams, the cabins were rehearsing their simultaneous dance steps all afternoon, gracefully gliding over the route in First Avenue. They did more than 26.2 miles back and forth today.

A first! New feature of the Roosevelt Island Tram. Two moving in the same direction. Cool!Finally, Roosevelt Island photographer Tatiana Muzica took this picture of the Marathon Runners making their way on Central Park South towards the finish line.

Looking forward to seeing the words "Roosevelt Island" and "Tram" on our new cabins for everyone to see once we are up and running for real.
Hopefully RIOC will understand the importance of tradition and good marketing but using those words and not naming the cabins "RIOC".
The pictures of both cabins side by side are Awesome!
