A hybrid cable/rail transportation system comprising: at least one portion of the system configured as a cable transportation system comprising at least one supporting cable; at least one portion of the system configured as a rail transportation system comprising at least one rail, wherein the system portion configured as a cable transportation system is upstream and/or downstream of the system portion configured as a rail transportation system; a plurality of transportation units wherein each transportation unit comprises a cabin; a first trolley coupled to the supporting cable; a second trolley coupled to the rail; wherein each cabin comprising a roof provided with a connection device configured to couple with the first trolley along the system portion configured as a cable transportation system and with the second trolley along the system portion configured as a rail transportation system.

A cableway station with small spatial requirements that includes boarding and disembarking areas for passengers, a first station level and a second station level. The first station level includes a station conveyor and a continuous conveyor. The continuous conveyor has a conveyor track connecting the station levels, at least one carrying element, and a conveyor for continuously moving the at least one carrying element along the conveyor track. The at least one carrying element is designed to grab a cableway vehicle moved in the first station level by the station conveyor at a transfer point of the station conveyor track and to carry the cableway vehicle to the second station level. The conveyor track at least in sections runs transversely to a gravity plane that includes a gravity direction of gravity acting on the cableway vehicle at the transfer point and the station conveyor direction at the transfer point.

Parking system to improve the parking and feeding of cableway vehicles. Each cableway vehicle has connecting elements designed to detachably connect adjacent cableway vehicles. When parking, a jointly movable vehicle combination of detachably connected cableway vehicles is parked on the parking track. For feeding cableway vehicles, a parking track conveyor pulls the vehicle combination from the parking track toward the feed track until the detachably connected connecting elements of two cableway vehicles at an end of the vehicle combination facing the track end are in an effective range of an actuating device. The actuating device detaches the connecting elements between these two cableway vehicles, and the feed track conveyor moves the cableway vehicle located at the end of the vehicle combination facing the track end away from the parking track.
