Built in 1870 – Oldest Continuously Operating Incline
Could be a shot for contrast as well. A spot of color on a dull day. The Monongahela Incline. View from West Carson Street.

Love the slant of the first photo.

Great pair of photos, Ruth. This must’ve been a marvel when it first began operation. I wonder how many of these are still working here in the US?

It reminds me of the Funicular in Quebec City… I guess that is French for cable railway. It is always fun to ride up .

Great photos Ruth! It might be a dull day, but at least the grass is greening up nicely. And, the Monongahela Incline is an awesome subject.

What a great reminder of the Petrin Funicular Train in Prague. It opened in 1891.
