I'm assuming they're going to match the K1 cabins. Would be silly if they didn't, right?
It would be cool if they had one or two to look like the original orange gondola.

Re: Skyeship Gondola cabin photo gallery
a quick google search tells me they currently weight about 1000 lbs. No way cabins from the early 90s weight 4 times as much.

Re: Skyeship Gondola cabin photo gallery
On the Bob Perry photos, there seems to be some sort of rack/ladder on the side of the cabin. Any idea what that was for?
