During said period of time several new methods were thought of and implemented including: the use of steel cable to allow for greater load support and larger systems. funicular railways were instituted in San Francisco in 1872 and as attention grew, aerial tramways became a greater focus shortly after but only coming into commercial use for passengers in the 1900s.〔http://www.mas.bg.ac.rs/_media/istrazivanje/fme/vol34/4/5._hoffmann_205-212.pdf Klaus Hoffmann ''Recent Developments in Cable-Drawn Urban Transport Systems'' - 4/11/2006.
