Mergellina Funicular

The Mergellina Funicular (Italian: Funicolare di Mergellina), is one of four operating funiculars in the public transportion system of Naples, Italy. The system is a true funicular: an inclined railway with two passenger cars, connected via cables, operating in concert. Opened in 1931, the Mergellina Funicular is Naples' fourth and most recent funicular. The Chiaia, Central and Montesanto funiculars connect nearby lower areas of Naples to the high neighborhood of Vomero. A now defunct system, the Sorrento Funicular, operated nearby from 1883 to 1886.
