     Det var ikke mer enn noen år siden Store Norske hadde bestemt at det skulle bli slutt med å frakte kull fra gruvene med kibber som hang høyt over bakken i taubaner på kryss og tvers over bebyggelsen.

     It was no more than a few years since Store Norske had decided it would stop carrying coal from the mines in tubs that hung high above the ground on aerial cableways that criss-crossed over the buildings.
