A cable car on Hyde Street, with Victorian (or maybe later) houses. There is a continuous cable under the street, driven at a central power station. The operator controls a "grip," with which he grabs the cable to move, and releases it when the car stops, This photo clearly shows the gap where the grip reaches under the street to grasp the cable.
