AN AERIAL FERRY.


Transportation between Silver City
and Mogol1on, New Mexico. has been
greatly facilitated by a newly con-
structed ferry across the CHA river.
The river runs through a deep gorge
at this point, SO ordinary ferry ser
vice would have been difficult and ex-
pensive. An aerial ferry. controlled
by overhead trolley, has been subsd-
tinted. which is different from any
other in the world
This mechanism easily carries an
automobile, enabling it TO run as
smoothly along TIE wires as if it were
supported By tracks laid upon solid
ground. The sensation to the passen-
ger is similar to that of being in an
airshfp. The ferry is operated by
electricity and its safety has been
carefully guarded.
Aerial ferries for cfnveying passen-
gers have been provided over num-
Der of western mountain streams, but
this is the first to carry autos and

lotner kinds without necessitating any
