A cable car is any of a variety of transportation systems relying on cables to pull vehicles along or lower them at a steady rate. The terminology also refers to the vehicles on these systems. The cable car vehicles are motor-less and engine-less and they are pulled by a cable that is rotated by a motor off-board.
Cable car transport systems are a viable transportation system for various situations. Cable-Propelled Transit (CPT or cable for short) can be effective as a mass transit system at a reasonable cost.
They are advantageous for transit of mountains, valleys, steep slopes and bodies of water. Constructing roads in mountainous terrain requires substantial funding and can significantly affect the environment."The minimally invasive design enables ropeways to blend in almost imperceptibly with their surrounding- without harm to the visual impression of the tourist destination".
In an aerial transit system, cabins (also called carriers, vehicles, cable cars or simply cars) are suspended and propelled from above by cables. The cable that supports the cabin may or may not be the one that propels it too. This depends on the technology used. It is a two way transport.

The Terex S-24: an overview by Richard Campbell Designed as a direct replacement for its existing S-18 single engined motor scraper, the Euclid (later Terex) S-24 had a long career and was the company’s most successful single engined, open bowl scraper. Responding to industry requests for more horsepower and the fact that General Motors was going to discontinue manufacture of the series 6-110 engine, Euclid set about a redesign of the S-18 to utilise the new GM 12V-71 diesel engine. (The former 325 horsepower GM 6-110 had previously been the principal power unit for the S-18, SS-24 and TS-24 scrapers.) Several pilot models were trialled until an acceptable layout was reached. Euclid replaced the 3-speed Allison powershift transmission previously used with a 5-speed model increasing th...
So I waited in line for over an hour in San Fran to hop on the legendary Powell/Hyde St. Cable car. So glad I did. I was able to hop on the front and got some cool GoPro of the ride thru San Fran. I left the original audio in so you can hear the gears grinding and the bells chime as we go up and down the hills in the city, it gets pretty narley in places, like a roller coaster sort of... enjoy.

Watch this critically acclaimed Indian biographical war film, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose: The Forgotten Hero (2004) starring Sachin Khedekar, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Rajit Kapur, Divya Dutta, Arif Zakaria among others. Born in a prominent Bengali family, Subhas had dedicated much of his younger years by being actively involved in ridding the British from India. For this purpose he joined hands with stalwarts such as Jawaharlal Nehru and Mohandas Gandhi, but expressed his frustration, especially with Gandhi's slow and painstaking way of trying to win over the enemy with love. It is for this reason, he decided to separate from the Congress Party. The British became weary of him, placed him under arrest, but when he started a hunger strike unto death, they let him go, but kept him under survei...

My first time at Croft and the track couldn't have been more slippy, so being 'a noob' I started second from last but thanks to the Beetles wet weather traction I managed to make up 6 places off the start. AC/DC Legend Brian Johnson out-braked me in his Austin Cooper S into Tower Corner and Ian Gunton picked me off a few laps later in his rapid 1040cc Hillman Imp, but I had a great dice with Bob Bullens lively 1500cc Ford Anglia for most of the race and cautiously passed him a few laps from the end (cautious because we had another race the following day and I didn't want to bin it) The Beetle likes the wet but I do need to adjust my throttle pedal again as I wasn't able to use heal-&-toe braking (which is why I kept snatching the rear on the downshifts). I was testing a few new parts this...
