No 7 - Great Orme Tramway  Contributor's Pick!       
Cars are permanently fixed to the cable, and are stopped and started by stopping and starting the cable. As one car is ascending, the other is descending, and they meet midway. An overhead wire was formerly used for communication only between the tram and the engineer-driver in charge of winding the drum, and has been replaced with an radio-control system.
