ABSTRACT:
An aerial tramway installation has two spaced apart terminals with a transport track interconnecting the terminals. A rescue track extends along the transport track and is elevated with respect thereto. Transport cars having transport cabins are movable along the transport track and a rescue car having a rescue cabin is movable along the rescue track. A rescue vessel can be lowered and lifted between the rescue cabin and a transport car on the transport track. The passenger capacity of the transport cabin and of the rescue cabin are substantially equal, whereas the rescue vessel is supported outside of the rescue cabin and is able to transport two persons at each lifting operation.
