Yesterday we took the nearly 130 year old Dresden Funicular Railway to get down to the Elbe valley.

Next time we visit I want to try the suspension railway...

I'd always assumed that most funicular railways used water which was available at the top station.
The Lynton & Lynmouth railway is fairly close to me (in UK), and doesn't need to pump water uphill.
