Worth visiting!

A tip I have about this place

Dubbed “The Shortest Railway in the World.” Angel’s Flight was built in 1901 to provide wealthy Los Angeles businessmen easy access from their homes atop Bunker Hill to the business district below. It was dismantled and stored away in the 1960’s and wasn’t reinstalled and reopened until 1996.

Since someone classified this place as a Room, Thing To Do, or Other; instead of as a Destination; I am unable to add the address and the website. Here they are: Corner of 4th and Hill Streets, Downtown Los Angeles. Website: http://www.westworld.com/~elson/larail/angelsflight.html.

Angel's Flight

I also added it as a destination. By the way, you are quite the Angelino! :)

before you go...

know that it’s been closed for repair for a while. I was there on 2/9/08 and the funicular was down.

I’m a big fan though- hoping for the reopening.
