The Orvieto Funicular ((イタリア語:Funicolare di Orvieto)) is a funicular railway in the Italian city of Orvieto. It connects the railway station with Piazza Cahen in the city centre, which is situated on a volcanic rock above the station. The line passes through the rampart, which surrounds the city centre, in a tunnel.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 The new funicular of Orvieto - Presentation )〕 The line was originally built in 1888, and took the form of water-ballast counterbalanced funicular. This line was in use until 1970, when it was abandoned. Twenty years later, in 1990, a new electrically hauled funicular was built on the route of the old.〔 The cars of the new line are unmanned, and the whole line is controlled by a single controller in the upper station. The line operates every 15 minutes, or more frequently if traffic demands it. It has the following parameters:〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 The new funicular of Orvieto - Map & Datas )〕 At the upper station, the funicular connects with two routes operated by electric minibuses that serve the city centre.〔 == 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「Orvieto Funicular」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
