cable car
This term describes two distinct types of transport depending on the geography. In mountainous regions, it refers to aerial tramways or gondolas that move passengers through the air. In an urban context, specifically regarding San Francisco, it refers to a ground-based streetcar that grips a moving underground cable to propel itself.
While often used interchangeably with "tram" or "gondola," "cable car" specifically emphasizes the mechanical reliance on a cable rather than a self-contained engine or a track-based electric system.
