Remember Gilbert? 👍

Pretty sure it doesn't these days.

No, Gilbert was the last and I think he quit 2007ish.

TBH it’s not ideally laid out for an uplift and the local council couldn’t find a box to tick for him, so I think he technically ran a taxi service.

Ironically I was on the last uplift he ever made, it was my first and last go on it, we rode whites and then got a lift back up, rode the black run again and then over to the final descent for Skyline, I thought it was brilliant and couldn’t wait to do it again when he announced that was it.

Anyway, you can shuttle the end of The Wall if you like using public roads.
