Heh. I love those cable cars. Saw something on the travel channel recently that shocked me. The cable cars have three basic brakes.The first works like the normal friction brake on a train. The second is the rail brake. This brake is nothing more than a pine block about two feet in length that is pressed against the rail itself. The third, the emergency brake, is a metal wedge that gets thrust into the cable guideway itself.

I always liked those. They seem kind of "lost in time" with their semi primitive systems. We need more of them
