The Cable Car Home Page

by Joe Thompson

A site about cable cars (also known as cable tramways) all over the world.

August, 2017 Picture of the Month: Edward J Lawless and his mustache. New in August, 2017: On the Cable Car Lines in Kansas City page: "Personal Reminiscences of Early Cable Street Railway Work in Kansas City, MO," a 1900 article by EJ Lawless. Coming in September, 2017: On the San Francisco page: "Cable Car Wedding Great for 'Pleasure'," about a 1961 wedding on a Powell/Hyde cable car Enter Copyright 1996-2017 by Joe Thompson.

1996 -- The Cable Car Home Page - 20 Years -- 2016 November, 2016 marked the 20th anniversary of this website. I wish I had written down the date I started it.

As if I didn't have enough websites to keep track of, I now have a blog: The Pneumatic Rolling-Sphere Carrier Delusion

And now I now have another blog, mostly about movies: The Big V Riot Squad
