A wire rope is secured at one end to each of the anchor means and each rope extends there- from toward the carriage and around one of the sheaves. The other ends of the ropes are connected to means for pulling on either rope while simultaneously paying out the other one to thereby pull the carriage along its track. One of the ropes n be temporarily released from its anchor means and detach- ably connected to the carriage, which can then be pulled by the other rope so that the carriage will pull the released rope across its anchor means to take up slack in the ropes.
