Cervinia cableway is of particular interest for its steel, shop fabricated framework of end stations; frames support machinery and all loads transmitted by cables; cables span 1826 m with change of level of 523 m; at speed 9m/sec they transport 840 persons (world record); notes on cableways in Teneriffe, Jugoslavia and on two radial cableways in Spain; in latter cages run on track fixed to mountain slope, consequently not needing any steelwork.
