I got some amazing photos and videos of the funicular in Santiago de Chile, but then my phone got stolen before my daily photo backup occurred :\

Santiago de Chile

Steal some photos off the internet and post them here, like everyone else

This was the best I could do shy of posting someon elses'd photo. That is the track the funicular takes!

I’ve been to this one! IIRC they say it’s the most heavily used track in the world, in terms of people carried per mile (because it’s so short).
