The winch car service at Palani temple hill. Just check out the gradient that this 2 coach cable car covers.it takes around 15 mins to travel from the bottom to the top of the hill which just might be half a kilometer long

Yeah the rope is there! As said by Ashwin, the rope is tied to a pulley which pulls the winch uphill using a motor.However manual operation is also required.

Btw Palani is on the MG (still existing ?) line from Dindigul to Pollachi/Podanur/Palgat...Its one hour journey from Dindigul (pronounced Dhindukkal in Tamil).
