ANGELS FLIGHT® RAILWAY
A Little History of the Angels Flight® Railway
The 118-year-old funicular takes passengers on a short ride between Hill Street and Grand Avenue on Bunker Hill. Originally opened in 1901, Angels Flight® — the world’s shortest railway — has given more than 100 million rides on its hillside track. In 2017, the Angels Flight® Railway Foundation selected the Angels Flight® Development Company, LLC, a joint venture led by ACS Infrastructure, to rehabilitate, operate, and maintain the funicular for the next 30 years. Passenger service operations recommenced on August 31, 2017.
