History & usage: The character depicts the Mountain Cableway. Use it in travel messages to signal a mountain ride or scenic lift during trips. Use it in itineraries or planning chats to indicate cable car transport, especially for mountain destinations or ski days.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
