Refund of Cable-car Ticket in case of Cancellation on account of Bad Weather
score:3
Translation of the German Allgemeine Beförderungsbedingungen (using DeepL, emphasis mine):
Cable cars
§ 8 Exemption from the obligation to carry
Events of force majeure such as weather conditions, strikes, lock-outs, operational disruptions or unforeseeable circumstances which may impair the safety of the transport operation shall postpone the obligation to transport for the duration of the hindrance and a reasonable start-up period or shall be omitted due to the fact that repairs cannot be remedied or are not carried out on time. In these cases there is no right to a refund. Likewise, no reimburs*m*nt shall be made in the event of weather-related impairments or for unused tickets as a result of illness, injury or early departure.
Rail transport / rack-and-pinion railway
§ 6 Ticket prices and tickets
(6) In the event of non-use of a ticket, the fare shall be refunded on application against return of the unvalidated ticket. If the ticket has only been used for part of the journey, the difference between the fare paid and the normal fare for the distance travelled shall be refunded. Applications must be submitted immediately, at the latest within six months, to the railway administration.
§ 8 Exemption from the obligation to carry
Events of force majeure, e.g. weather conditions, strikes, lock-outs, operational disruptions or unforeseeable circumstances which may impair the safety of the operation of the vehicle shall postpone the obligation to transport for the duration of the hindrance and an appropriate start-up period or shall be omitted due to repairs which cannot be repaired or which are not carried out on time.
But: Recently, passengers who were stuck on the cable car and train for an hour due to a power outage got a refund (German newspaper aricle).

§ 8 Entbindung von der Beförderungspflicht

Ein Anspruch auf Rückvergütung besteht in diesen Fällen nicht. Ebenso erfolgt keine Rückvergütung bei witterungsbedingten Einbußen oder für nicht genutzte Fahrkarten infolge von Krankheit, Verletzung oder vorzeitiger Abreise.
