A ride down Fløibanen

Fløibanen, the Mount Fløyen cable railway, is probably the longest funicular I have been on. It was reminiscent of the Great Orme Tramway in its technology but not appearance, as it looks very sleek and streamlined. It is also much more rugged and steeper!

I filmed some of the seven minute journey (downwards)and have YouTubed it below.

Part one- leaving the upper station


Part two- approaching the crossover track at mid-point


Part three- arriving back at the lower station
