The Cabin

 

 

 The cabin is composed of two parts. A closed cabin with wooden seats an open platform with wooden seats also. Note the angle of the back of the seat on the right!

The seats and the cabin itself can be removed from the platform for the transportation of big loads. Remember that the entire power station was built with this platform as transportation.

The cabin at the upper station.

In winter a snowplow is mounted at the rear of the cabin.  

 

 

 The inside of the cabin.

Note the wooden benches, the heater tubes under the bench and the handles on the roof of the cabin.

 The cabin emerging from the depth of the gorge.

Note the weight of the cable between the pulleys despite the cable is tight!
