Cable snapped in Lisbon tram crash, report states
September 07, 2025
|The Independent
A cable linking the two carriages on the Lisbon Gloria funicular snapped, a preliminary report into the deadly crash has found. At least 16 people died and 23 people were injured when the carriage came off the tracks at about 6pm on Wednesday.
Footage from the crash shows the tram-like funicular, which carries people up and down a hillside in the Portuguese capital, destroyed and emergency workers pulling people out of the wreckage.
Five of those killed were Portuguese, along with three Britons, two South Koreans, two Canadians, an American, a Ukrainian, a Swiss and a French national, police said.
The carriage had only travelled about six metres when it lost the "balancing force of the connecting cable".
