FRENCH ALPS.
Europe's largest cable car system, the newly-built "Vanoise Express" is
tested November 11, 2003 at the ski station of les Arcs in the French
Alps. The doubledecker cars, which each carry 200 people and their ski
equipment, will link the ski stations of Les Arcs and La Plagne and go
into service by Christmas 2003. The project will cost around 15 million
Euros (16 million dollars).
