View from Overhead Cable Car on Snezka, Kralovehradecky kraj, Bohemia(CZ), 2015

This was one of the shots I took on the cable car, heading up Snezka. This was before Ruzova hora, where it was necessary to switch cars, even though this shot has an optical illusion that makes it look like the building in the foreground is the station. In reality, the Ruzova hora station is a brownish-reddish building much further up the mountain. These cable cars weren't always enclosed "cars" per se. From 1949, when the system was built, until 2012, these vehicles were open chairlifts. Here's some period footage of the old system (pre-2013), including some of the demolition:

The new enclosed cars were added during a renovation in 2012-2013. This means the system, in its current form, was still relatively new when I took these photos.
