The Great Orme Tramway is a Funicular Railway, with two trams from Llandudno to Half way station, and another two from Half Way Station, to the Summit. You have to change trams at Half Way, and continue on the upper part of the journey. It is a Funicular being powered from the winch in Half Way Station. The cable is connected to all four trams. The gauge is 3'6" . There are three stations, Victoria which is on Church Walks, Half Way Station which is a bit higher up than half way, and the Summit Station.
Barcelona has three funiculars as a part of the public transport service . One of them, the Tibidabo Funicular was opened in 1901 . It has a lenght of 1151,30 m. , a maximum gradient of 25% and a height difference of 284 m. The other two are the Vallvidrera Funicular (1906) and the Montjuïc Funicular (1928) . The Montjuïc Funicular runs partly underground. I also missed the Trieste-Opicina, Predigstühl and Great Orme Tramway
I think the Triest-Opicina tramway would have been a nice contender. Sure, it's not fully a funicular, as just a part of it operates as a funicular, but you got to admit that it's cool.
The Heidelberg Königstuhl Funicular is very interesting, it consist of two parts: The lower part from the city to the "Molkenkur" with a stop at the famous Heidelberg Castle is a very modern funicular, built in 1890, rebuilt in 1962 and completely renewed in 2004. The upper section has still its historical appearance, but was also technically updated in 2004 because of new legal requirements after the Kaprun catastrophe.
A very interesting "half" funicular equipped with a single Abt type switch is made up of the horizontal section of the famous horizontal - vertical lift which connects via Balbi with Corso Dogali in Genoa
I really love the Angel’s Flight in Los Angeles, and wish someone would rebuild the very similar Court Flight, which closed during the early years of WWII as the system was owned by an elderly lady who was not able to find anyone who could help her safely operate the system. There is a rumor the two cars of the funicular survive in a private collection somewhere in Southern California…
I don't see the legendary Oberweißbacher Bergbahn and the equally famous funicular section with pushers of the tram (called in Trieste trenovia) Trieste - Opicina (el tram de Opcina)
The one in Neroberg Bahn in Wiesbaden is also cool, especially since it operates via water. The tank on the car on top of the hill is filled with water, and the weight of the water is what pulls the other train up the hill. Water is dumped out at the bottom and pumped back up into the car on top.
Some very spectacular funiculars are missing: Schweiz: 120-FUL Sierre / Siders - Montana, length 4191 m, height difference 931 m (funicular with most stations in the world; 8 stations = world record) Schweiz: 135-FUL Schlattli - Stoos, length 1753 m, height difference 743m, maximum gradient 110% = 47.7 degrees (steepest funicular in the world) Österreich: 236-FUL Interfragant - Mölltaler Gletscher, length 4827 m, height difference 1012 m (longest funicular in the world) Österreich: 165-FUL Spital am Pyhrn - Wurzeralm, length 2937 m, height difference 622 m, speed 14 m / s = 50.4 km / h (fastest funicular in the world) Schweiz: Saas Fee, Felskinn - Metro Allalin, length 1447 m, height difference 465 m, height of the mountain station 3445 m = highest funicular in the world
The Tünel (English: Tunnel) designated as the F2 line on the Istanbul transport map is a historic underground funicular line in Istanbul, Turkey. It has two stations, connecting Karaköy and Beyoğlu. The tunnel runs uphill from near the confluence of the Golden Horn with the Bosphorus and is about 573 metres (1,880 feet) long. Inaugurated on 17 January, 1875 the Tünel is the second-oldest fully underground urban railway in the world
Naples Italy has four operating funiculars as a part of their Public Transit System. 'Funicolare Centrale' 1.234km has 4 stations and carries about 10 million each year. It opened in 1928. Carriages are large at 420 people. Trip time of 4 minutes means 6,200 people per hour potential. Vomero at the top of the hill, is a bustling 2 km square district of Metro Naples, population about 48,000. Chiaia, Mergellina, & Montesanto are the other 3 operating funiculars in Naples. (A now defunct system, the Sorrento Funicular, operated nearby from 1883 to 1886.)
Are there other rack railways around the world equipped with Abt-type switches without pointers, such as the Principe - Granarolo rack railway? Thank you very much for your availability
I visited Israel a few years ago. They are having a similar one called "Carmelit". The view at the top is unbelievable! You can see the entire part of North Israel, as well as the Southern part of Lebanon... (on a clear day)!
probably unpopular opinion, but I find the honk kong funicular and penang, malaysia one also pretty nice and scenic. The one in penang has some cool "easter eggs" in my opinion edit : Yes I just realised I spelled hong kong wrongly my bad
No Hungerbergbahn in Innsbruck? It not only goes up and down the mountain, but then goes through a tunnel to the center of the town (cars actually pass each other in the tunnel). There are two intermediate stations that are placed so when one car stops at one, the other car stops at the other. Runs at an energetic gait, too.
Forget not the Gelmerbahn, the second most steepest Stanseilbahn (funicular) in the world, that is now beaten byTHE steepest Stanseilbahn that has like six barrels on each of the two carriages as they turn to keep a horizontal plane. Complete with tunnel, this is relatively new in the Canton Schwyz called the Stoosbahn.by the Hintere Schlattli i
The only funicular I've ever been on was the one in Rio de Janeiro that goes up "Sugar Loaf Mtn." This is thanks to the U.S. Navy, I took the 22 minute ride to see Christ the Redeemer statue. It was a very scenic ride and worth every penny!

Just thinking about all the countries I have been on funiculars in and it's too many but continents it is;Asia, Europe,Australia and Oceania (counting Oceania as a continent for convenience).The only one however I have been on on your video is the Bergen, Norway one.
One nice incline I'd add is the Angels Flight Railway in Los Angeles, I'm not sure if you've been there yet but I'd highly recommend filming it. It's starred in a numerous amount of movies, you may even recognize it for one famous scene in the Muppets. Another one I'd add is the Katoomba Scenic Railway in Australia at Katoomba Scenic World in Queensland
The Scenic Railway in the Blue Mountains, Australia is missing. Steepest in the world at 51%. Funiculaire de Lyon in Lyon, France running from Vieux Lyon up to the Fourviere.
You missed all of the 5 (at least) funiculars in Catalonia/uña/unya! They are: Montjuïc - got cool cars Vallvidrera Tibidabo/Cuca de Llum (firefly in Catalan) - very cool cars Gelida Puigcerda And the diagonal lift at Sants Estació. I think that counts ???
This video is definitely missing the Dresden suspended funicular, an installation from 1901 and to this day the only one of its kind anywhere on earth.
Los Angeles actually has a funicular called Angels Flight. Its the worlds shortest railway built in 1901. Also could you do a video on gondolas/cable cars? I know Portland has a good one.
Indeed. It's also one of the prettiest and best preserved and maintained. It's been restored a few times. It should have been on this listed based on the others listed.
The list seems to be quiet arbitrarily. What's so cool about them ? It's 10 of thousands like this. Switzerland alone has about 128 of them. Complete list: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_funicular_railways
You missed 3 funiculars: 1. Gdynia Funicular, it runs to Kamienna Góra (Mt. Rocks), it primarily serves disabled people 2. Gubalowka Funicular, located in Zakopane, it is part of PKL (Polish Line Railways) network, it runs on a single track, due to being operated by two cars, it has a passing point at the halfway point, 3. Mt Żar Funicular, located in Międzybrodzie Żywieckie, it is also part of PKL network and it uses ex-Gubałówka cars, built on the same methode (single track with passing point).
In bilbao (spain) Technical data. Travel: 770.34 meters. Elevation: 226.49 meters. Maximum slope: 44.98%. Inauguration: October 7, 1915 AND NEAR TO BILBAO IN TRAPAGARAN THIS!!! Travel: 1179 meters. Elevation: 342 meters. Maximum slope: 35.9,%. inaugurated on September 24, 1926
The potentially lovely urban funiculars of Lisbon are utterly ruined by graffiti (some people were raised wrong). If you do a part II, may I suggest Nazaré, Portugal, whose funicular goes up a cliffside and offers magnificent beach and ocean views?
In Nizhny Novgorod, there were two funicular lines built at the end of the 19th century and closed at the beginning of the 20th. They connected the lower (commercial) part of the city on the banks of the Volga, and went up to the city Kremlin, going under its walls. It is a pity that the systems closed so early, but at the moment, work is underway to reconstruct one of the lines, or rather, it is being built from scratch, because nothing remains of the old line
The Carmelit in Haifa. It's a 2km long underground funicular with 6 stations, and basically serves as the city's metro system. It connects to all current BRT lines in Haifa th-cam.com/video/WXhfPQ0GOvE/w-d-xo.html Haifa generally has great transit: 3 BRT lines (2 more under construction), great rail connections (the Haifa-Tel Aviv HSR and the Haifa downtown rail tunnels were approved yesterday!), the Haifa-Technion Aerial Tramway should open in February and the Haifa-Nazareth LRT is also under construction (in some sections it'll go 100km/h!). And it's only the third largest city in Israel... Jerusalem and Tel Aviv are constructing wayyyyy more
Hong Kong's and Dubuque's didn't make the cut. HK's has spectacular views once you reach the top, but not so much along the way. I rode it in 1985, so the view has no doubt changed!
None of the Naples funiculars? Neither of Bergamo funiculars? And what about the three extremely scenic funiculars in Genoa? (One of which is actually a rack tramway, like Lisbon’s). Trieste also sports a spectacular rack tramway that climbs from almost sea level up to the Carso mountains.
It amazes me that you can do a video on Funiculars and not show any in the Alps! (Zurich is not in the Alps.) Just as one Swiss engineer (Nicholas Riggenbach) invented the Rack Railway, so another (Roman Abt) invented the single-track funicular with a a loop in the middle. There are examples of Abt's design all over the Alps. Some are museum pieces (like the first section of the Stanserhorn line). Others are very modern, eg the 'Metroalpin' at Saas Fee and the incredible Soosbahn mentioned by another commentator.
in the Urals, there is one that can fit a small ferry (takes them atop the local dam, using some of the generated electricity) the main point of the dam was always Flood-control, so it always produced more energy than it could get out to civilization anyhow... they planned to make a electro-smelting plant nearby, but it never got built due to late USSR early RF chaos, so the local big-men decided to built funicular system instead... must've loved funiculars...
Trieste - Opicana tramway has a cool section with 'funicular tractors'.
You missed the “Funicolare della Mendola”. Opened in 1903 and 2.37km long. Is one of the longest and steepest in Europe
The Great Orme Tramway is a Funicular Railway, with two trams from Llandudno to Half way station, and another two from Half Way Station, to the Summit. You have to change trams at Half Way, and continue on the upper part of the journey.

Lynton and Lyndmouth in England should on that list. A water powered railway

There is a very old and nice one in Chattanooga Tennessee.

My favourite is Lynton - Lynmouth, North Devon, UK.

I haven't been on one since the early 90s in Ukraine. One of the few memories I have from over there
Hungerburgbahn in Innsbruck, Austria. Great video!😊👍❤
Thank you for the mervellous video. I would add the funicular in Innsbruck (Austria) Hungerburgbahn,

The Scenic Railway in the Blue Mountains, Australia is missing. Steepest in the world at 51%.
Funiculaire de Lyon in Lyon, France running from Vieux Lyon up to the Fourviere.
Wellington, New Zealand
I've been on the old one, before it was upgraded in the 1970s, and the upgraded version. ❤
Gute Videos - PolyBahn in Zürich kenne ich sehr gut. Funicular in Kiev habe ich eben ein Film geschnitten. Bravo
The Lynton and Lynmouth railway in Devon, UK.
Water power
You missed out Penang funicular train in Malaysia. It’s 2km & with max slope of 53% & fast too. I had ridden it once & it was fun.
55% is the maximum slope for roller coaster design. Higher than that, the cars are falling, not rolling.
Valparaiso needs a bit of maintenance I think !!!,
Así es😯

Polybahn of Zürich, because I know it well and good memories of it with my father when I was a kid🥰
Trams gone wild!!!

Indeed. It's also one of the prettiest and best preserved and maintained. It's been restored a few times. It should have been on this listed based on the others listed.
The Fenelon Place Elevator is another funicular which is just 2 feet shorter, and the Bayside Canadian Railway was only 220 feet long.
The list seems to be quiet arbitrarily. What's so cool about them ? It's 10 of thousands like this.
Switzerland alone has about 128 of them. Complete list: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_funicular_railways
You missed Funicular de Sant Joan in Montserrat (Barcelona). In Barcelona we have more funiculars too

can you make another one
How do these switch tracks anyways?
The Pittsburgh Area has the best inclines in the US, do to our coal mining infrastructure. Great view of downtown Pittsburgh.
Funicular is good 👍🏼
wish my city had some funiculars, we've got steep bluffs but if you're not in a car you've got to hoof it all the way up 😓

The potentially lovely urban funiculars of Lisbon are utterly ruined by graffiti (some people were raised wrong). If you do a part II, may I suggest Nazaré, Portugal, whose funicular goes up a cliffside and offers magnificent beach and ocean views?
Yup. Lisbon in general is a beautiful City but its tolerance of graffiti spoils it somewhat.
A wonderful video from a talented person👊

And it's only the third largest city in Israel... Jerusalem and Tel Aviv are constructing wayyyyy more
KATOOMBA in New South Wales, Australia is said to be the steepest in the world. But may not be, going by the video, here.
Hong Kong's and Dubuque's didn't make the cut. HK's has spectacular views once you reach the top, but not so much along the way. I rode it in 1985, so the view has no doubt changed!
Eh... Budapest and the view from the funicular going up to the castle. Should be here.
I thought the same🙋🏻♀️

Keep in mind that this is his opinion, I'm sure he'll put yours in at some point :)
Koyasan Cable Line has not 8 km, but only 0,8 km (800 meters, to be understandable for autor).
Yeah that is what 0:22 says --> .8km - doesn't say anywhere 8km
The most charming funiculars are in Budapest, Dresden and Genoa.
This video isn't complete without the Carmelit
Innsbruck is the most advanced, 3 in Naples
Great Orme railway in llandudno Wales
Zagreb ??
The shortest and steepest funicular is in Dubuque, Iowa.
😊
the world's first funicular is located in Lyon, France
Bergen Floibanen Bybanen Tramway Trolleybus in Bergen
I have never seen a Funicular Railway that cloud fit a car into it. Must of the ones I have been on, were just for people.
in the Urals, there is one that can fit a small ferry (takes them atop the local dam, using some of the generated electricity)
the main point of the dam was always Flood-control, so it always produced more energy than it could get out to civilization anyhow... they planned to make a electro-smelting plant nearby, but it never got built due to late USSR early RF chaos, so the local big-men decided to built funicular system instead... must've loved funiculars...
I use lisbon funiculars everyday and OMG who choose a narrow valey to build a city was an idiot. the hills kill me.
There is a funicular in The city of London that is a few metres long.
Very nice, but I consider the Short German Nerobergbahn the most beautiful funicular - it‘s still water balanced en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerobergbahn
There are two in istanbul.

Sometimes I'm sure Japan is always on the list😂
It certainly has a lot of interesting transit out there!!
