A cable car system includes vehicles that are clamped to a hauling cable along the route and decoupled from the hauling cable upon entering the stations. The vehicles are moved through the stations by control tires which are coupled to one another by gear mechanisms and driven via a supporting pulley for the hauling cable. The control tires are mounted on a supporting frame on at least one supporting structure. The rotation of the supporting pulley that drives the control tires is derived from the hauling cable by way of a drive belt. The drive belt runs over the supporting pulley, which is mounted on a pivotable rocker, and over at least one control tire. The pivotable rocker is mounted on the supporting structure for the supporting frame, or the pivotable rocker is mounted on a supporting structure to which the supporting frame is not attached.
