2:51 Hakone Tozan Line is actually made up of three sections: (1) 1067mm narrrow gauge "extended sub-urban rail" from Odawara to Hakone-Yumoto (2) Standard gauge "main section" from Hakone-Yumoto to Gora (3) Funicular section from Gora to Sounzan
For the third part I recommend the ferry of Strausberg, Germany. Probably the only ferry powered by Electricity from an overhead wire and also the Mini Metro System in Perugia, Italy.
It was great to see the lovely Ascensores from Valparaiso in your video. Brings me good memories from my trip to Chile 12 years ago. There are proudly an icon for the Chilean history, despite some of them were taken out of service due to "repairs" that never came. Muchas gracias Tim!

The Lookout Mountain Incline Railway near Chattanooga, TN is similar to Mount Koya. While it is primarily a tourist railway, I believe that the locals use it as well.
Valparaíso Lifts (or ascensores) are beautiful and explain with accuracy the city history. Now, there are 3 in revamping works (Monjas, Concepción and Villaseca), but a mix of issues related to Covid - 19 and bureaucracy slowed the pace of this works. With the Valparaíso Metro card, we can pay the Ascensor in Valpo.
I think, we have also any switchback lines (Kraków-Zakopane and Kraków Główny-Krynica-Zdrój trains), they are making U-turns at Rabka-Zdrój and Muszyna stations, respectively.
Hong Kong Peak Tram has temporary closed in June 2021 for equipment update and fleet replacement. The line will be reopened in December 2021. Meanwhile, NWFB will put more buses on the peak routes.
I managed to sail on what was marked #5 on the list as well as the famous Skytrain approximately a few days before we were to board the Disney Wonder on a magical cruise to the "gateway to the Klondike" known as Alaska and I believely knew that once we returned to Vancouver and were heading to the Canada Line to catch 1 of 2 Delta flights at YVR ; after what I told Mickey Mouse about the Skytrain, He did manage to ride the whole Skytrain system for that magic credit before reboarding the Wonder fot the next cruise!
You definitely need to visit the strange public transport system of Genova / Italy, including cable cars, elevators, mini rail etc. One of the strangest travelling options is the Ascensore Balbi-Castello d'Albertis. You'll freak out :D
Of the cities in the U.S., San Francisco easily rates no. 1 in variety: commuter rail (Caltrain), rapid transit (BART), light rail (MUNI Metro) and of course the cable cars. Plus, there is one MUNI Metro line that uses vintage equipment. Boston and Philadelphia have a variety of rail services as well.
Thanks for another great top 10. Nice to see an old Melbourne tram running around Christchurch. They used to do dinner trips on it. Not sure whether they still do. In Melbourne you can still do that though. The funiculars in Japan brought back happy memories too :).
These are quite interesting systems! Didn't know about the Medellin escalators! The San Francisco cable cars, on the other hand, are most certainly unique, because, as you said, they are the last cable cars left that aren't people movers! Also, although I have been viewing you for a while, I think I will finally subscribe!
My top team is the Dalian 201 route 100 year old tram. Since that tram line opened in like 1903 or something this line has never stopped operating for even a day. It’s way more than a century old, this tram line. When you search on Google look at the older looking single light tram, it has one carriage unlike the newer one that has 3
I love your two videos, I have travelled on some of these unique transit systems, including Christchurch, Hong Kong, San Francisco and Lisbon. One not so well known is the 'Minimetro' in Perugia Italy, it's truly unique, the city also has some great escalators. My favorite rapid transit system is the S-Bahn in Berlin, it offers great views of the city.
Prague created new historic hop-on-hop-off tram route for tourists. Like 7 days ago. The historic means the oldest trams from before ww2 are operating it, and it goes through historic center.
Very interesting. But you forgot the the Harzer Schmalspurbahn - a narrow gauge steam train railway network in Thuringia, Germany, the elevated Schwebebahn of Wuppertal and a similar one on a hill in Dresden, or the wonderful Rhaetische Bahn in Switzerland through the Alps. There are also cable funiculars in Heidelberg and Karlsruhe, as well as a very unique cog tramway in Stuttgart, all in southwest Germany. Near Berlin, there's the Woltersdorfer Straßenbahn, which is a regular tramway with old trains from the fifties, and there's a row ferry in Berlin. Ah, and the Ventottos (28ers) in Milan, regular trams from 1928 on several lines. Or the trams of Rome which cross under a viaduct from the antique. What about the doubledecker trams of Hongkong? So many more ....

Unfortunately, the smallest tram company in the world, the Gmundner tram, is now a part of the local railway to Vorchdorf, which is in the past Pöstlingbergbahn, which existed until 2008 and was the only adhesive railway to use wedge-head rails, and with a steep incline of 116 ‰, it is now part of the Linz tram ...

Hi friend. wow Looking through your video I see civilization and prosperity. I don't have it in my country.. 👏👏👏🤝❤️♥️ Thanks your sharing video 👏👏👏👏👏👏 greetings from Viet Nam. My best friend 🤝🤝👏❤️❤️♥️👍
I suppose that if escalators operate for public use rather than in private buildings they are public transport like the Mid Level Escalators in Hong Kong.
@@UlliStein My children used to call the two pylons carrying the Hungerburgbahn over the Inn river "ball-pens" because of their shape. Only later we learned that Zaha Hadid actually had needles in mind when she invented those.
This is too often the same thing, too many rail based cable cars in this list. La Paz has a huge network of hanging cable cars, that's more unique. Each city on the waterfront, has a bus-like ferry boat in operation, starting with Venice in first place. Hamburg, Copenhagen, Stockholm, it's quiet common. There are no magnetic or air cussion trains in this list. On Faroe Islands, they have an helicopter operating as a bus.
And what about Trieste, Italy? There is a tram line using a pusher to climb on a hill. There is nothing similar in the world Another very interesting transit system is a cable line over the Volga river in Russia, which connects two cities: Nizhny Novgorod and Bor
I agree with you as I was thinking of the little-known Trieste-Opicina “hybrid funicular.” Not sure there’s anything similar to it. 👍🏻 Also the Ascensore Castello d’Albertis-Montegalletto in Genova, Italy is another highly unique transit service. 🇮🇹
I don't see how #2 is 'unique' at all, we have those everywhere in Germany / Europe. On a more general note: sorry to say it but the selection in this video seems limited, there were too many funiculars. This is why I prefer your other ("part 1") video. Having said that, your videos are still well made - I am criticizing it on a high level :)
Το cable car είναι το πιο ενδιαφέρον. Αντίστοιχα στην χώρα μου Ελλάδα υπάρχει η σιδηροδρομική γραμμή, πλάτους 60 cm, Βόλου - Πηλίου (Μηλιές). Η σιδηροδρομική γραμμή ξεκινά από τον σιδηροδρομικό σταθμό του Βόλου. Στη συνέχεια διασχίζει ολόκληρη την πόλη από τα Δυτικά έως τα Ανατολικά. Στη μέση της αστικής περιοχής υπάρχει ο σιδηροδρομικός σταθμός "Άγιος Κωνσταντίνος", σε ένα πολύ όμορφο πάρκο και στο βάθος η ομώνυμη Εκκλησία. Στη συνέχεια η γραμμή διέρχεται ανάμεσα σε πάρκα και όμορφα αρχοντικά σπίτια του Βόλου για να καταλήξει στο ρέμα του Άναυρου, εκεί που ο Βασιλιάς Θησέας έχασε το ένα του σανδάλι. Από εκεί και πέρα η γραμμή ακολουθεί σύριζα την ακτογραμμή προσφέροντας άπλετη θέα προς τον Παγασητικό. Έπειτα από 3 - 4 χιλιόμετρα η σιδηροδρομική γραμμή εισέρχεται στην κωμόπολη της Αγριάς, μια περιοχή που φημίζεται για τις εξαιρετικές ψαροταβέρνες της. Αφού διασχίσει ολόκληρο το αστικό τμήμα της Αγριάς φτάνει στο υπέροχο σιδηροδρομικό της σταθμό ο οποίος πνίγεται στις ιτιές. Στη συνέχεια η γραμμή κινείται σε ελαιώνες και χαμηλά δέντρα για να φτάσει στα Άνω Λεχώνια, σε έναν αντίστοιχα όμορφο σιδηροδρομικό σταθμό (παρόμοιο με της Αγριάς). Από εκεί και πέρα η σιδηροδρομική γραμμή αρχίζει να ανηφορίζει το Πήλιο, το βουνό των Κενταύρων. Η σιδηροδρομική γραμμή περνάει ψηλά πέτρινα γεφύρια και ανέρχεται διαρκώς. Λίγο πριν το τέρμα, το κεφαλοχώρι των Μηλεών περνάει την εντυπωσιακή γέφυρα του Ταξιάρχη η οποία διαγράφει ένα εντυπωσιακό τόξο για να καταλήξει στο σιδηροδρομικό σταθμό των Μηλεών. Δυστυχώς αυτή η μοναδική σιδηροδρομική γραμμή στον κόσμο δεν έχει την φροντίδα από το ελληνικό κράτος. Πρώτα από όλα η μισή διαδρομή από το Βόλο έως τα Άνω Λεχώνια είναι εκτός λειτουργίας. Το τροχαίο υλικό είναι ίδιο από τις αρχές του 1900, με αποτέλεσμα να μην μπορεί να εκτελεστεί περισσότερο από ένα ζεύγος δρομολογίου την ημέρα. Εσείς που εκτιμάτε τα σπάνια και τα ιδιαίτερα σιδηροδρομικά δίκτυα σας ζητώ να βοηθήσετε. Να λειτουργήσει η σιδηροδρομική γραμμή σε ολόκληρο το μήκος της. Να ανακατασκευαστεί η επιδομή της γραμμής. Να μπει ηλεκτροκίνηση και σηματοδότηση. Να ανανεωθεί το τροχαίο υλικό. Βοηθήστε όλοι το τρένο του Πηλίου, όπως μπορείτε: κοινοποιώντας το σχόλιο, στέλνοντας ένα γράμμα στις σιδηροδρομική εταιρία "ΤΡΑΙΝΟΣΕ", ενημερώνοντας άλλους φίλους και γνωστούς που θέλουν να βοηθήσουν.
Half of these aren't unique! Lisbon also has old style 'Streetcars' . While funicular railways are more common than you think. The UK had at least half a dozen - Lynton/Lynmouth, Saltburn-by-the-sea, Bridgnorth to name three. Can't believe you didn't include Wuppertal's famous 'hanging railway'. If you want 'unique' then look no further than Wuppertal.
I would include the Cascade in Yerevan, Armenia, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerevan_Cascade?wprov=sfti1. While a museum, with its interior escalators, it serves the same function as those in Medellin, getting people up the hill!

Didn't expect to see escalators in this video, and that is awesome.
The San Francisco Cable Car/tram is definitely the coolest one.
For the third part I recommend the ferry of Strausberg, Germany. Probably the only ferry powered by Electricity from an overhead wire and also the Mini Metro System in Perugia, Italy.

7:11 Apparently Bangkok implements water bus system in (much) wider scale compared to Vancouver.
London and Rotterdam too
No catenary in the way for that tram in France! Like that.
In Sydney (Australia) parts of he light rail in the city also use the APS system to avoid cables etc across the streets - very innovative.
Thanks for another great top 10. Nice to see an old Melbourne tram running around Christchurch. They used to do dinner trips on it. Not sure whether they still do. In Melbourne you can still do that though. The funiculars in Japan brought back happy memories too :).
Unfortunately the Colonial Tramcar Restaurant is no longer running. They are suppose to be unrail worthy
@@archmcdonald6170 Now I come to think of it have not seen it in ages...so that explains it.
Didn't realized Christchurch wasn't going to make on this list
Far more external escalators in Hong Kong. Also what about the Lynton and Lynmouth water powered funicular in the UK.
Lynton & Lynmouth Funicular has won awards for being one of the greenest systems in the world.

The SF cable car is cool, but I give some points to the old timey tram of Christchurch.
Can you make a video about Genua, Italy? About all the escalators.

What’s a switchback train
A train which goes over several short stretches, at the end of each it will switch to the next one. Commonly used to go up mountains.

Against some of them I have arguments….
Really? So then tell us.
