From the photo I ask ...

Did the tram car get stuck mid-supports or at a support ?

Did they have a way to move the car to get it to a support ?

No, they were stuck between the towers and I read they were moved very slowly to the tower as the emergency cables had ice that interfered with the support and pulling cables. If the cables had actually become tangled and wrapped around the other cables when moving quickly, it would have endangered the cars and passengers.

FTA: “...move the second car to the No. 2 tower. The cars could go backward, but not forward.”
