Below:
A rare photo of Court Flight, the sister funicular railway of Angel Flight
I believe it's been abandoned in this pic.



usc digital archive


Court Flight (1904-1943) was shorter but steeper than Angels Flight,
rising 200 feet in just over 200 feet.

Court Flight only charged for rides up and not down.
I'm not sure if this was the case with Angels Flight.




Below: In this small but cool photo, the incline and steps are still there....minus the railway cars.
