Funiculars
Pittsburgh's mass transit system also includes two unique funiculars (called "inclines" locally) which transport passengers from the top of Mt. Washington to its base along the Monongahela River, just across from Downtown Pittsburgh.
Both the Duquesne Incline and the Monongahela Incline have stations along Grandview Avenue atop Mt. Washington and in the Station Square area at the base.
The Duquesne Incline is owned but not operated by the Port Authority. The Society for the Preservation of the Duquesne Heights Incline operates the latter, and does so as a non-profit organization. It has the original cars and the original stations.
