- An inclined lift takes visitors to and from the thermal baths at Spa, Belgium. Let's take a ride up, watch it for a wee while, then ride back down again. Turn captions on for the description. Available in English and German.

Thanks to Chris for helping with German. Errors are all mine.
Greatly appreciate your technical correction of this being a cable-hauled incline, not a true funicular. We got to ride a similar conveyance, albeit a much more industrial one, in Japan at the Seikan Tunnel between Honshu and Hokkaido. We want to say that we thought that your camera work was spot on, and your editing was fantastic.
Thank you. That tunnel's somethng I want to do some time, though I hadn't realised there was other things to do there other than go through it at speed!
Thank you for sharing this! And the spa sounds like it would be great as well.
The spa day in Spa was one of two bucket list items I did on this trip. It was wonderful. I think you'll like the other thing too.
So each track has its own counterweight, which runs on an under track?
@@BillRicker Yes, that's right.
