Return to Angels Flight

I got to ride Angels Flight again on my recent trip to Los Angeles. It was the first time I'd been a passenger on the old funicular railroad in almost 50 years.




Here are two videos I took during my visit there. Going up, and going down!

It's actually a fairly rough ride! When the cars are in motion, you really feel like you're riding in an early 20th century rail conveyance.

Here are a few more photos of Angels Flight (which was built in 1901) in its 21st century context...

( +4, small file sizes. )

Hope you enjoyed the ride! It's much more fun doing it in person, though. ^^
