Duquesne Incline

Saves: 51
Check-ins: 21
This is one of the inclines designed by Hungarian engineer Samuel Diescher and is used to carry cargo up the mountain. After it was no longer needed for goods it was repurposed as a passenger rail for weary pedestrians who could no longer bear to walk up the hill.

Very old wonderful funicular train or incline railway. You can go below deck to see the gears!
