  • As far as I know, there are only four urban rack railways in the world, and one of them is in Stuttgart.
    My "cab view" video of the entire line going downhill is here: • The Urban Rack Railway...

    I was waving to the other train when our driver waved, too 😊

    We could do with those bike racks in Edinburgh.

      The previous trams on this route had a smaller version of the same, too.

    Fantastic - now I need to visit this too - when I visit das Wuppertaler Schwebebahn.

      Try and schedule your visit for when the tram museum is running heritage trams. You get a good long ride with great views. And there's a lovely woodland walk between the top of the funicular and the rack railway, if that's your thing.

    Great video! Your eye for angles is good. Lisa says she would like to take a ride on this line herself during her trip to Germany after Worldcon this year.

      It's fairly easy to get to, and is part of the local public transport system, so a local day ticket or a Deutschlandticket is valid. The ongoing saga at Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof is still ongoing, but causing less chaos than I feared. Stuttgart has a lot of interesting railed transport - there's still one more video in this series to come on the tram museum and heritage tram rides.
