Crashed Lisbon funicular had faulty cable, investigation says
Portugal's air and rail accident investigations bureau wrote in a note published three days after the tragedy that a cable linking two cabins disconnected shortly before the September 3 incident. The official inquiry recommended the city's vehicles stay out of service until their safety can be confirmed.
