That's very nice, but our hanger wasn't working correctly in Boston: the mechanism was fine, but we had problems aligning with the tower that we didn't fix 'till Thursday at Hartford.

We could line up and climb in five seconds, and our gearing was very conservative: we could've doubled our speed, but the team chose not to go that route (we had two FPs and one CIM in that gearbox) - I was outvoted
As for the tunnel, we could go under, and actually did a few times, but going over the bump was generally faster.
