German term or phrase: Treppenlinie

Specifications for a cable railway car in the Alps:

Treppenlinie 950 mm

I know this term can also refer to a histogram, but what does it mean here in the sense of cable car specs? Other specs in this list include Fassungsvermoegen, Neigung, Breite, Laenge, Hoehe, etc.
