Pacline Overhead Conveyors prides itself on producing one of the most versatile overhead conveyor systems on the market today – the PAC-LINE™.  Although PACLINE supplies overhead conveyor solutions most commonly used in industrial applications, we have consistently received requests from customers looking to convey items in highly unique retail and entertainment type applications.  You can check out some of these installations on our website and see for yourself how versatile the conveyor really is.

One recent conveyor installation we did was on the set of the Canadian-produced TV series, BOMB GIRLS.  This was actually a very interesting combination of conveyors in an industrial AND entertainment application. In case you missed it, the setting for BOMB GIRLS was in a Canadian munitions factory in the 1940s.

The show follows the stories of the women who risked their lives building bombs for the Allied forces fighting on the European front.

One of the important scenes in the show takes place on the munitions factory floor – which is where the PAC-LINE™ overhead conveyors came into play.

The BOMB GIRLS TV show debuted in Canada and later aired in the United States and the UK. Unfortunately, even with the show’s growing fan base and critical acclaim, the show was cancelled after its second season.

Although we had all hoped for the series to continue, producers decided to finally end the BOMB GIRLS story with a 2-hour movie that just aired on GLOBAL TV.

If you didn’t get a chance to watch the series we highly recommend it.
