Myoken Cable

The Myōken Cable (妙見ケーブル, Myōken Kēburu^?), officially the Cable Line (鋼索線, Kōsaku-sen^?), is Japanese funicular line in Kawanishi, Hyōgo, operated by Nose Electric Railway. The line climbs Mount Myōken (妙見山^?). The line was opened by Myōken Cable Railway (妙見鋼索鉄道, Myōken Kōsaku Tetsudō^?) in 1925, comprising Kabu Line and Jōbu Line. Both of them were abandoned in 1944. Kabu Line reopened in 1960 as Myōken Cable, while Jōbu Line became a chairlift.
