Abstract

The system to carry people away from a mountain station to a valley station has guide rails (4) suspended from supports (1-3) over the ground. The separate rail sections are linked together without sliding. The guide rails are held by guides (31), at least at a part of the supports, which swing around a vertical axis. When at rest, the rail sections (41,42) have a consistent sag, like a chain.
