aerial tramways (<public transit by form>, public transit (infrastructure), ... Object Groupings and Systems (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Transit systems consisting of overhead wires, cables, or rails supporting and towing suspended cabins along a, usually, closed-loop circuit; generally for transporting passengers up steep gradients, or over deep valleys or bodies of water. |

Chinese (traditional) ..... 由架空電線、電纜或軌道所組成的運輸系統,用來支撐懸掛的車廂並將它沿著閉環電路拖拉,一般用來運送乘客爬越陡坡、渡過深谷或水體。 |
Dutch ..... Wordt gebruikt voor vervoerssystemen die bestaan uit bovengelegen bedrading, kabels of rails die hangende cabines dragen en voorttrekken, meestal langs een gesloten circuit; over het algemeen om passagiers langs stijle hellingen of over diepe dalen of watermassa's heen te vervoeren. |
Spanish ..... Úsese para sistemas de transporte consistentes de alambres, cables o rieles aéreos que soportan y remolcan cabinas suspendidas a lo largo de, generalmente un circuíto cerrado, usualmente para transportar pasajeros por declives pronunciados, o sobre valle profundos o masas de agua. |
