BaD March 13 - 2nd Mode of Transport - Funiculars

            aka Funny-Peculiars 

Audrey has a licence to drive Funiculars ... so she did in Genoa and Naples.  Both Genoa and Naples are port cities with high hills behind them, they are a bit like giant bowls, broken and missing a bit where the ocean is now.  So both Naples and Genoa have funiculars and large public transport lifts (ascensore) to get people up and down. 

Top Left - Genoa - Audrey driving the Principe-Granarolo 'funicular' it is actually a rack & pinion system - very steep and the cars are sweet little wooden things from the 1920s.  The photo is at the passing point where the car going up passes the one going down.

Top Right - Genoa - the Zecca–Righi funicular.  When we went for the long walk along the old city wall behind Genoa we took the Principe Granarolo up ... walked along the wall ... and Audrey drove the Zecca Righi funicular back down again.  

Lower Left - Naples - Funicolare Centrale.  This is one of the most used funicular railways in the world, and carries over 10 million passengers per year.

Lower Right - Naples - Funicolare di Montesanto.  We visited the Castel Sant’Elmo - it is on a big hill and there are wonderful views of Naples.  Audrey drove this funicular back down.
