New Overhead Railway In Austrian Alps (1938)

Austria. Several shots of a new cable car being opened on the Alberg Mountain in the Austrian Alps. A priest blesses the first car before it sets off up the mountain. From the car we look back on the waving crowd of spectators. The occupants get out of the cable car at the top of the mountain and walk over the snow to look out at the view.
