It links Montfort on the road between Grenoble and Chambéry, with the village of Saint-Hilaire du Touvet, located on the Plateau des Petites Roches above.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Funiculaire Saint Hilaire du Touvet - History )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Funiculaire Saint Hilaire du Touvet - Bottom Station )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Funiculaire Saint Hilaire du Touvet - Technical Datas )〕 Until the funicular was built, the village of St. Hilaire du Touvet was accessible only on foot, or by mule. The construction of the funicular was started in 1920 and it was opened in 1924, principally to serve several sanatoria built to house tuberculosis patients.〔 A road has long since been opened, and the funicular is now used mostly by tourists and paragliders. Until 1955, the funicular was served by two 40 passenger cars. These were replaced in that year by a more modern design of car, carrying 60 passengers each. In 1992, these were in turn replaced by new cars to a retro design, not dissimilar to the original cars.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Funiculaire Saint Hilaire du Touvet - The Cabins )〕 == See also == * List of funicular railways 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Funiculaire de Saint-Hilaire du Touvet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
