    We rode that in 1994 after visiting the Smokies for the first time. We rode down, got ice cream and rode back up. I loved it, my wife didn’t. Thanks for sharing!!

    You know who are the first timers when it gets steep and people start freaking out. Lol

    Good evening, is the switch that transforms the line from simple to double track (crossing loop) operated electrically? In continental Europe most single-track funiculars with two balanced cars are equipped with the needleless switches designed by the Swiss engineer Roman Abt

Please let me know which one. Thank you.

    I rode on an incline in Pittsburgh, Pa. up to Mt.Washington. It was neat! This, you were on was steeper. I enjoyed seeing Chattanooga. Interesting history on the inclines. They had a nice snack bar, & a really nice gift shop. The brown t-shirt that looked nostalgic was the best of all, I thought. I liked this, it was fun.
