January, 2022 Version of the Cable Car Home Page -- January 1, 2022

I just put the January 2022 version of my Cable Car Home Page on the server:

It includes some new items:
1. Picture of the Month: The heavy Endres bottom grip used on Hoboken cable cars. Note the cable lifters before and after the grip. (Source: Image courtesy of Rail-Road Extra).
