Cablecars tend to go *up* things. Are there any that are built in the
complete absence of a steep slope? By 'complete absence', i mean
without a slope anywhere along; Barcelona's, for example, is on the
level between the foot of Montjuic and the port, but it's there because
there's a big slope from the foot of Montjuic to the top of Montjuic.

The cable-car at Alton Towers goes across a valley, rather than "up a
hill".
