Trouble at the Arch

without comments

Two hundred people got trapped in the St. Louis Arch yesterday.  Some were in trams, and others were at the top.  If this ever happened to me, I’d hope to be stuck at the top.  I visited the Arch a few years ago, and it has an amazing view of St. Louis.  Getting to the top and coming down weren’t as exciting.  I’m not sure if the “trams” are still the same, but at that time, they crammed four people into a tiny, egg-shaped elevator that took you to and from the top.  Getting stuck in one of those could be quite nerve-racking.
