TLG made a few interesting pictures of mine cars coming in and out of a
mountain, along with a cable car going up the mountain on the outside. This is
found in Lego booklet #241 and Lego book #242:

And then, speaking of bridges, these books also have some neat bridge building
ideas:

#241 and #242 came out in the early 1970's, and have many other great pictures.
