Still editing the recent trip to Canada.

I leave in Quebec City and it is a good view of the funicular.

However, I find that the focus could have been better.

You are so right. My face is red now, not green. I posted the wrong shot.

October 12 1996 (20 years yesterday) the cable snapped and the emergency brake failed to stop the cabin before it crashed into the lower station...A Briton Helen Tombs was killed.

My wife and I were there last year and took the funicular. Glad we didn't know about the accident in advance.

Don't worry, now, the maintenance is done three times a year and the owner has changed...
