Soviet era miners' cable car or aerial tramway transportation system in Chiatura, Georgia - Jul 2013

The Soviet Era Cable Cars Not For The Fainthearted
In the steep valley town of Chiatura the public transport system is an engineering spectacle that, today more than ever, is not for the fainthearted.
In the early 20th century, after the seizure of Georgia by the Soviet Union, authorities were intent on building a functioning workers' town to ramp up extraction of Chiatura's vast manganese deposits.
As Soviet planners got to work on the requisite sanitarium and cultural centres, the issue of public transport within the gorge proved less straightforward.
Eventually, in an effort to conquer the town's extreme geography, a network of cable cars or aerial tramways were built to almost every corner of the mining town.
Traditionally, this transported miners from their homes at the bottom of the gorge to the mines that dotted the mountains, and was also used to transport the manganese from mine to factory.
In its heyday Chiatura was responisble for producing 60% of the world's manganese.
Today, while some of the cars have rusted away, seventeen - including the USSR's first passenger tramway- remain in service.
Most tramways in Chiatura use a 'jig back' system where two cabins are connected to the same haulage rope.
An electric motor pulls one cabin down, using that cabin's weight to help pull the other cabin up.
And, while mining isn't quite as prevalent as it once was, the tramway remains a vital resource for locals and the mines still in operation.

Portrait of Allister Heath
Allister Heath, editor of The Business magazine. Heath argues that Britain is slowly "gaining a magazine culture, while it loses a newspaper one", which is why he intends to turn the Business - with just nine full-time editorial staff - into a British version of US magazines like Business Week, Forbes and Fortune.
