The Gateway Arch is nothing short of a masterpiece of engineering. I adore this place. I would love to take the steps in here. Could you imagine the view of the elevator system as it passes by? That would be a sight.

What a unique elevatoring system! Reminds me of as another commenter in a video said, like a Wonkavator or something out of Evangelion in a way (surrounded by long pathways of twisting stairs and steel). Will have to visit some day! Thanks for recording in HQ.

When I think of the St Louis Arch, I think of the song "Curvature" by Pansy Division. There is a line in the song that mentions the St Louis Arch. Are you a fan of Pansy Division's music? Whether you are a fan or not, one fact stands in place. DieselDucy YOU are the top elevator channel on KZitem. I really enjoyed this video. I never knew how the elevator system operated inside of the Big Arch. Now I do. DieselDucy your videos are absolutely fascinating. That is because YOU are a fascinating man.

EPIC "elevator" system! What a wonderful piece of engineering. I noticed that there is a separate, more conventional elevator in the lower part of the arch, I guess no visitors are allowed, but it would be nice if someone can get access to it, it also looks interesting, with its inclined shaft. We can see its motor at 3:20 Would be so cool if you ask to show us this "tram" system behind the scenes, and that separate elevator.
