Abstract
This paper describes a new APM system, known as the CABLE Liner, and the test track installation in Wolfurt, Austria, where the CABLE Liner has now been running under test conditions for over a year. The CABLE Liner is detachable funicular railway with vehicles drawn by a continuously moving cable loop integrated into the guideway. Based on the concept of "permanent movement", this system is designed to handle passenger volumes of up to 5,000 PPH in each direction over distances of up to 5 kilometers (3.1 miles), with little or no waiting time.
