	HOBOKEN INCLINED CABLE RAILWAY
		The up cable is right underneath the car; the grip man lowers the rope lifter, raises the cable between the open jaws of the grip, closes them gradually, and the car moves off.
		The grips are of iron, 3 feet long, and the cable is in contact with the jaws of the grip for the entire 3 feet.
		A third cable, attached to each truck and passing around sheaves at the top of the hill, serves as a safeguard in case either set of hoisting cables should break.

	Robinson v. Chin & Hensolt
		Thus, the operator of the car who uses the cable grip device became known as the "gripman" -and eventually, "grip person." The second operator of a cable car is known as the conductor.
		Each cable car continues to use two operators, a grip person and a conductor, who-as they did in the early days of the cable cars-communicate with each other by ringing a small bell called the conductors' bell in a series of codes.
		Respondents argued that the cable car turntables were improvements to real property within the meaning of section 337.1, the alleged defects were patent since 1984, and thus appellants' 1999 lawsuit was time-barred by the statute.

		It is said that during the first year of the operation of the cable road in Chicago, breakages of cables through carelessness of the inexperienced grip-men were frequent, and caused many vexatious delays.
		The sub-way is formed of sections bolted together, each section being a self-contained girder, opening at the apex, and forming a continuous slot through which the grip-bar for the cable is admitted.
		The cable system of street car propulsion has received a noteworthy extension during the past year, by the construction of about ten miles of such railway for several of the leading street railway companies in Philadelphia, and which was about ready to be put in operation at the close of 1884.

	Effects of multiple crimps and cable length on reflection signatures from long cables.
		Crimp lengths varied from 12 mm (1 grip width) for the shortest cable, as shown by the right cable in FIGURE 2B, to 48 mm (4 grip widths) for the longest cable.
		The actual length of each cable was determined as the distance from the pulse source to the cable end, marked by a near vertical upward reflection at a horizontal scale of 1 ft/div.
		As the cable length increases, the crimps must necessarily be longer for identification, and a combination of these two factors produces signal reflections that correspondingly become wider.

		Cable car operations were wiped out by the earthquake and fire in 1906.
		The Hallidie grip's shanks were not strong enough to stand the pull curve in the extension, so it was replaced by a new grip.
		It was the first cable car line to go around a corner, with a let-go curve at Columbus & Union.

	Robinson v. Chin & Hensolt (2002) * California
		Thus, the operator of the car who uses the cable grip device became known as the “gripman”—and eventually, “grip person.” The second operator of a cable car is known as the conductor.
		Respondents argued that the cable car turntables were improvements to real property within the meaning of section 337.1, the alleged defects were patent since 1984, and thus appellants’ 1999 lawsuit was time-barred by the statute.
		Three San Francisco cable car "turnarounds" are not personal property, but are improvements to real property, for purposes of the statute of limitations in Code of Civil Procedure section 337.1, thus dismissal of claims for defective design and construction was proper.

	Temple Street Cable Railway (1886)
		In Los Angeles, CAL. two small cable railways were constructed in the year 1886 under patents belonging to these Companies, --the Second Street Cable Railroad and the Temple Street Cable Railway.
		In operating these roads, where turn-outs are met, the rope is dropped from the grip and the cars pass around the turn-outs by gravitation.
		There is only one slot for the grip, the rope traveling in opposite directions upon pulleys placed 28 feet apart.

	Wellington Cable Car Museum
		She may be a centenarian, but the Wellington Cable Car still glides up and down the Kelburn Incline countless times a day, sweeping through city and suburb alike with her cargo of commuters, students and sightseers.

		The ringing of the cable car bell is one of San Francisco's most familiar and favorite sounds.

	Melbourne Cable Trams
		Cable tram grip and trailer 543 were photographed in Nicholson Street, Fitzroy, at the Gertrude Street junction with the Exhibition Gardens in the background.
		Conversion of cable trams to electric tram commenced during the 1920's, with the conversion of the Swanston Street lines in 1925.
		Electric trams made their debut in 1906 and were mostly constructed to connect with the outer ends of the cable tram network, though some, such as the Hawthorn Tramways Trust line along Swan Street, were constructed into the City.

		The cable system seems to be growing in popularity, as we hear of considerable extension of its use in San Francisco and Chicago, where it has successfully stood the test of a number of years trial, and in Philadelphia, where an experimental line of about half a mile was laid down last year.

	Market Street Railway cable cars
		If a cable car is going faster than that, it’s a sure thing that the car is going downhill and the grip is not holding the rope tightly.
		But in the 'rationalization' of the cable car system (see cable car history), the old Washington-Jackson line was cut back and connected with the outer end of the old O’Farrell, Jones, and Hyde line, which started operations in 1891.
		This is not because a cable car line with a higher cable crosses here (as happens for the Powell cars crossing California), but because the cable takes a 90-degree right turn here and runs without track three blocks north under Mason Street to reach the cable car powerhouse.

	The Wellington Cable Car
		Grip cars 1 and 3 and trailer 4 are now held in storage at Karori but it is hoped that they will soon be part of a Cable Car museum in the old winding house at the top of the incline.
		The cable, a mile long wire rope was wound up and down the track by a 12 foot driving wheel, then run around huge pulleys as either end of the track, and through the driving mechanism.and#0; The cars were joined together with a second "tail" rope, independent of the driving rope.
		In early 1976 the Cable Car was shut down for a further two months for another overhaul required by the Ministry of Works and in June of that year the council finally decided to replace the cars with a fully automatic version.
