Luftseilbahn (cable railway)

A Luftseilbahn, or cable railway, is a transportation system that uses one or more cables to move cabins or cars across a designated route, often in mountainous or difficult terrains. The cables are suspended between stations and driven by motors, pulling the cabins along a fixed path. This system allows for efficient, low-impact movement over steep or inaccessible landscapes, making it ideal for tourism, urban transit, or connecting remote areas. Passengers typically sit in enclosed cabins that glide smoothly along the cable, providing scenic views and a reliable, environmentally friendly transportation option.
