	Tramway

		At sunset the desert skies produce a spectacular array of color, and your vantage point from the observation deck atop 10,378 foot Sandia Peak in the Cibola National Forest affords an 11,000 square-mile panoramic view of the Rio Grande Valley and the Land of Enchantment.

		Further on the tram enters an arterial road and passes the tramway depot.
		The rolling stock consists of two collections which represent typical tram fleets: Fourwheeler and bogie car models of HAMO and BEC coated in red and cream stand for the tramway of Hamburg during the 1960s and 1970s; blue and white trams of Gog-Tram and Roco reproduce original Heidelberg tramcars of the 1950s to the 1970s.
		Thus we are able to demonstrate urban tramways in service as you might have seen in German cities during the 1960s to the 1990s.

	Melbourne's Tramway History.
		A two-mile cable tramway was opened by the Clifton Hill, Northcote and Preston Tramway Co. between the M.T.O. cable tram terminus at Clifton Hill and Dundas St Northcote on 18th February, 1890.
		The second electric tramway in Melbourne's suburbs was opened on the 11th October 1906 and ran from Flemington Bridge (near the terminus of the North Melbourne cable tram route) to Essendon, with a branch to Saltwater River (Now Maribyrnong River) and a short spur along Puckle St Moonee Ponds, to Moonee Ponds railway station.
		The lease of the cable trams by the Melbourne Tramways and Omnibus Co. expired on 30th June, 1916 and it was decided to appoint an interim Melbourne Tramways Trust to operate the system until it was decided what to do about the growing problems of street passenger transport in the Melbourne metropolitan area.

	Buderim-Palmwoods Heritage Tramway Inc. featuring the Krauss & Shay Locomotives
		The Palmwoods to Buderim ‘tramway’ was built as a railway, in that it did not follow roads, and it had a separate permanent way with large bridges, cuttings and embankments.
		It was technically significant and demonstrated an uncommon aspect of Queensland’s cultural heritage because it had a 2 foot 6 inch (0.762m) gauge as opposed to 2’0"(0.6096m) for the sugar mill trams and 3’6"(1.0668m) for the Queensland Rail mainline, and it was privately constructed.
		The first project is the restoration of part of the old tramway track as a heritage walking trail, and the second project is the cosmetic restoration of the original Krauss locomotive that operated for the whole working life of the line.

	Barnsley and District Tramway Information
		The Barnsley electric tramway was a narrow gauge 3 ft 6 in (1067 mm) line, running from Smithies (near Monk Bretton Colliery) to the south of Barnsley, 2 miles south of the town centre to two termini, at Worsborough Bridge and Worsborough Dale.
		The Barnsley tramway was to be larger than it actually were but the Great Central Railway company refused the passing of tramway tracks of its own network, and prevented authorised lines to be built.
		Other extensions were to extend the tramway into a loop on Park road in Locke Park and south from Worsborough Bridge down Sheffield Road to Hoyland Common, this extension was also blocked by the GCR.

		To avoid single line running and passing loops a special dispensation was granted for the tramway to be laid with the northbound line in the gutter rather than in the middle of the road and with the south bound line in the centre of the road.
		The tramway along this section is also relatively new as it was opened in 1925 to make way for the new road and also reducing the distance of the tramway and the time it would take to get to Fleetwood having originally described an unnecessary curve.
		The tramway passes down Lord street and North Albert street where when built the poles supporting the overhead wire were sited down the centre of the road, but in 1927 they were brought together with the street lamps and situated at the sides of the road with the track being repositioned.

	Complete History of Palm Springs Aerial Tramway
		However, Crocker's vision of a tramway to scale those cliffs to the coolness of the San Jacinto mountains never died.
		Construction of the Tramway was an engineering challenge and was soon labeled the "eighth wonder of the world.'' The superlative was earned because of the ingenious use of helicopters in erecting four of the five supporting towers.
		The Tramway announced in 1998 that it was embarking on a modernization program that would see the construction and installation in 2000 of new cars and updating of its facilities.

	Palm Springs Aerial Tramway - DesertUSA
		The Tramway became one of the largest construction projects ever undertaken involving transportation of materials by helicopter.Helipads were built near each of the tower sites and made more than 23,000 flights, hauling more than 5,500 tons with average loads of 700 pounds.
		The tramway is known as a double reversible type of aerial tramway.
		The light tramway cars hold 80 people each and are suspended from a carriage that holds 24 grooved wheels which ride upon the track cables.

	Aerial tramway at AllExperts
		An aerial tramway is a type of aerial lift, often called a cable car or ropeway, and sometimes incorrectly referred to as a gondola.
		An aerial tramway is one or two fixed cables (called track cables), one endless loop of cable (called a haulage rope), and two passenger cabins.
		Aerial tramways differ from gondola lifts in that the latter use several smaller cabins circulating on a looped cable, and can be stopped at intermediate or end stations for passenger loading and unloading when uncoupled from their haulage cable by releasing cable grips.

		The Board establishes design, operation, and maintenance standards; reviews requests for variance from the rules; and investigates accidents related to the operation of tramways.

	Tramway Financial Modeling
		Estimated initial and long term cost must be made early in the feasibility phase of the project in order to assess the financial liability of the utilization of a tramway within the project.
		Additional project benefits must be assessed based upon no only their enhanced values created by the existence of the tramway but also upon their ability to provide an income source to pay back the initial cost of the tramway along with the long term cost of operations.
		It is better to find out early in the project that a tramway may not be feasible than to spend valuable resources only to determine that the original model was too optimistic.

		The tramway remained in private hands until 1949 when Llandudno Urban District Council bought it under its powers to compulsorily purchase the undertaking at seven yearly intervals.
		The cut line in the concrete down the outer sides of the tramway rails is the buried induction control cable installed in 2001.
