I can't find any follow up to this Sept. 2014 article stating what you mentioned. I have to say, this will be a very welcome addition for cyclists. I recall the first time I got to Harpers Ferry, pretty sapped from a long day on the trail, trying to figure out how I'm going to haul my bike and all of the filled gear bags up the spiral stairs. Ended up taking the bags off the bike, hauling them up to the top, then coming back down to retrieve the bike. :-)
