New long‑form article on Funimag.
The Brooklyn Bridge Cable Railway (1883–1896) — a remarkable and largely forgotten cable‑hauled line that once carried thousands of passengers across the East River.
This article brings together historical research, archival documents, rare images, and a Lumière film showing the line in motion.

Funimag/photoblog is back.
After several years focused on social platforms, I’ve rebuilt and modernized the site.
Funimag returns to its original purpose: a quiet, independent space for long‑form, illustrated articles about funiculars and cable‑hauled systems.

I’m mesmerized by the Stoosbahn in Switzerland. It’s officially the steepest funicular in the world, tackling a mind-blowing 110% gradient (48^{\circ} incline).
​What makes it truly incredible is the design: those cylindrical cabins aren't just for show—they rotate as the train climbs so passengers stay perfectly level while the world tilts outside.

Zufällig habe ich es geschafft, mit der Opicina-Straßenbahn zu fahren, während sie 2025 einige Monate lang unterwegs war.

Aktuell ist der Betrieb wieder – wie davor seit 2016 – eingestellt.

Der Wagen erklimmt das Karstplateau über der Hafenstadt. Im steilsten Teil der Strecke wird er von einem Beiwagen angeschoben (bzw am Weg hinunter abgebremst). Ein einzigartiges System von 1935!

The new Funicular just showed up! Hooray! My favourite magazine, it consistently delivers good short stories and poetry.

I took a rest day in Pittsburgh, before riding the GAP and C&O to DC. I brought my laptop to a library to get some work done, and then rode the Duquesne Incline. #pittsburgh #incline #funicular #skyline #goldenhour #photography #darktable
