Stuttgart's Urban Rack Railway

As far as I know, there are only four urban rack railways in the world, and one of them is in Stuttgart.
My "cab view" video of the entire line going downhill is here: • The Urban Rack Railway...

I was waving to the other train when our driver waved, too 😊

We could do with those bike racks in Edinburgh.

The previous trams on this route had a smaller version of the same, too.

Fantastic - now I need to visit this too - when I visit das Wuppertaler Schwebebahn.

Try and schedule your visit for when the tram museum is running heritage trams. You get a good long ride with great views. And there's a lovely woodland walk between the top of the funicular and the rack railway, if that's your thing.

I have used it to get from Marienplatz up to the TV tower

Great video! Your eye for angles is good. Lisa says she would like to take a ride on this line herself during her trip to Germany after Worldcon this year.

It's fairly easy to get to, and is part of the local public transport system, so a local day ticket or a Deutschlandticket is valid. The ongoing saga at Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof is still ongoing, but causing less chaos than I feared. Stuttgart has a lot of interesting railed transport - there's still one more video in this series to come on the tram museum and heritage tram rides.
