tram ride :) - a photo on Flickriver

tram ride :)

            My daughter and me inside the small tram in the Downtown Los Angeles :) I know, that isn't a good quality photo, but it was taken by my friend with her phone.

Angels Flight is a landmark and historic 762 mm narrow gauge funicular railway in the Bunker Hill district of Downtown Los Angeles, California. It has two funicular cars, named Olivet and Sinai, that run in opposite directions on a shared cable. The tracks cover a distance of 91 m over a vertical gain of 29 m. Built in 1901 and began at the west corner of Hill Street at Third and ran for two blocks uphill to its Olive Street terminus. The railway was closed on 18 May 1969 and after 27 years, the funicular was rebuilt and reopened by the newly formed Angels Flight Railway Foundation on 24 February 1996, half a block south of the original site. Angels Flight was added to the National Register of Historic Places on 13 October 2000.

Moja córcia i ja w wagoniku kolejki w śródmieściu Los Angeles :) Wiem, że nie jest to najlepsze jakościowo zdjęcie, ale pstryknęła je moja koleżanka swoim telefonem.

Angels Flight – linia kolei linowo-terenowej działającej w rejonie Bunker Hill w śródmieściu Los Angeles w stanie Kalifornia. Linia kolejowa obsługiwana jest przez dwa wagony noszące imiona Sinai i Olivet, które kursują w przeciwnych kierunkach na wspólnym kablu. Długość torów wynosi 91 m,  zaś różnica wysokości 29 m. W roku 1901 oddano do użytku linię Angels Flight pomiędzy ulicami Hill Street a Olive Street. W 1969 roku Angels Flight została zamknięta z powodu przebudowy. W roku 1996 linię otwarto ponownie, ale już na nowej trasie od Hill Street do California Plaza.
