'transport' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.

(Other definitions for cable car that I've seen before include "One travelling up" , "An easy way to 6?" , "Means of mountain transport" , "Suspended transport system" , "could make one upwardly mobile" .)
