they call it a cable drawer. everyone has one. no one sorts it. the figure inside knows why.

Tourists like to ride the cable cars but so do the locals.

Wonderful view from up here. I'm very grateful for not being stuck here in unfriendly weather like some did recently.

The Port Mann Bridge is a 10-lane cable-stayed, toll bridge that opened to traffic in 2012. It is currently the second longest cable-stayed bridge in North America and was the widest bridge in the world until the opening of the new Bay Bridge in California. This bridge replaced a steel arch bridge that previous spanned the Fraser River.

 

The Port Mann bridge spans the Mighty Fraser River, connecting Coquitlam and Surrey, BC Canada

 

Length: 2,020 metres (6,630 ft)

Width: 65 metres (213 ft)

Height: 163 metres (535 ft)

 

Construction Cost: $820 million

 

(What caught my eye was the multi-layers and lines)

I don't want to imagine what happens if one cable breaks...

I put this in the group, then took it out when I thought maybe only round baubles were the theme, then saw other non-round ornaments being accepted, so I've put it back in. Well, it is the purpose of cable cars to go back and forth, after all!

 

Looking close...on Friday: Christmas baubles. This souvenir of San Francisco is about 3 inches/7.5 cm across.

 

Happy holidays, Flickr friends!

June 4, 2022: Bench on Municipal Railway of San Francisco Cable Car at Travel Town Museum in Los Angeles, California. The double-ended California Street Cable Car was built in 1906 and has been on permanent loan from the City of San Francisco since 1955. 146/365

Made the hubbub turn the car around to get this beauty.

Seeing the City of Madrid from High up, you can get a Cable car that takes you up and out over the city to the Caasa de Campo Park. The park covers hilltops to the West of the city centre and was originally a Royal hunting park.

An old marker sign on Adur River Bank. There's one on either side. I wonder if there is still any kind of cable passing beneath now

Tehachapi!

 

UP ET45AH 2627, ES44AC 7414, and ET45AH 2639 hold down swing helper duties on UP 2576 east seen at Cable. For this eastbound there is still roughly 5 miles before Tehachapi Summit has been reached.

This was a difficult shot to get. It was mid-day and the sun was bright, and tons of tourists were going in and out of the mill. I waited quite a while until one lone little cloud moved across the sun and softened the light for a few seconds. My trusty assistant, Manuel, politely asked people to clear the bridge while I got the shot. Thanks, Manuel!

 

The Cable Mill was built in 1867 by John Cable. It processed logs, corn and wheat. It has been wonderfully preserved, and is one of the main attractions in Cades Cove.
