点评:Tuesday 6th May we took a ride on the Rokko Cable Car as one of features of our The Glory of Mount Rocko Tour.
It is located in the National Park Rokkosan and it has been running since 1932, in fact the front of the green carriage in gold letters was "Rokko Cable since 1932". The other carriage was red
Sadly, today the weather was rather miserable, lots of umbrellas about and the views were very restricted.
We travelled from Shimo Station to the summit, Rokko Sanjo Station, which is located at an altitude of 737 metres (roughly 2,418 feet) above sea level.
The Cable Car travels a distance of 1.7 kilometres (just over a mile) between the two stations, which are in height terms 500 metres (approx. 1,640 feet) apart. The journey time is approximately 10 minutes
We did arrive in time to catch the 09.20 train, however, there was another Tour Group a ahead of us. There was insufficient room for our Group, so we waited for the next departure at 09 40.
We climbed the concrete steps, alongside the carriages to front carriage where we boarded, and sat alongside the driver.
There was a real retro charm, stepping back in time feel to the carriage with its wooden panels and large windows.
From our seats we could see up the track and surrounding area as we travelled up the mountain.
Two cars, each with two carriages operate along a single line track, one travels up the track while the other travels down. This a halfway point, the track splits into two allowing the carriages pass each other.
Despite the weather conditions we did enjoy our journey on this quaint old Cable Car.
翻译:5月6日,星期二,我们乘坐了六甲山缆车,这是我们“六甲山荣耀之旅”的特色之一。
缆车位于六甲山国家公园内,自1932年起运营。事实上,绿色车厢的车头上用金色字母写着“六甲缆车,自1932年起”。另一节车厢是红色的。
可惜的是,今天的天气相当糟糕,周围有很多遮阳伞,视野非常狭窄。
我们从下站前往山顶六甲山上站,海拔737米(约2,418英尺)。
缆车在两站之间行驶1.7公里(略多于1英里),两站之间的高度相差500米(约1,640英尺)。行程时间约为10分钟。
我们及时赶上9点20分的火车,但前面还有另一个旅行团。由于座位不够,我们一行人只能等到9点40分的下一班火车。
我们沿着水泥台阶,沿着车厢爬到前车厢,然后坐在司机旁边。
车厢的木质面板和大窗户营造出一种复古的氛围,仿佛回到了过去。
从座位上,我们可以看到上山时轨道和周围的景色。
两辆车,每辆车有两节车厢,沿着单线轨道运行,一节车厢上行,另一节车厢下行。在半程,轨道一分为二,车厢可以互相通过。
尽管天气不好,但我们仍然很享受乘坐这辆古色古香的缆车。
