Name these two disaster movies from 70's/80's?

These may have been TV movies. They're both in the same style as far as I remember. Trapped people waiting to be rescued from a disaster at the start of the movie deal with soap-style issues shown in flashbacks.

One was a cable car stuck half-way up a mountain, the other was a suspension bridge where each end of the bridge had collapsed leaving people trapped on the bit inbetween.

The cable car movie was called Hanging by a Thread. I don't know the other one.
