If the mountain <br>station is lower than the mid- one, there is no discussion.<br></blockquote>I think the germany word "Talstation" ("valley station") is not flawless <br>as a Talstation might not be in the valley but in the middle of the <br>mountain. I think in the german language "Talstation" refers to the <br>lowest station of an aerialway.
