From happier times travelling in the USA. Love the sound of the cables being hauled constantly beneath the street.

Chiatura, Georgia, is home to a historically fascinating old cable car network. A remarkable and rusty relic of the Soviet era.

Built to connect the steep mining town to the surrounding manganese-rich hillsides. These steel cabins once carried miners, residents and ore across the mountains.

Seems urban cable 🚡 cars are more popular than I thought 🤔. Pretty neat.

Wish my zoom lens wasn't broken this week. Getting a shallow depth of field with a 35mm lens requires getting close. Really close. The first cable car driver gave me a shout to get out of the way, but this guy gave me a smile and a wave! #cablecar #sanfrancisco #photography #darktable #nikon #d200 #shallowdepthoffield
