Cable Train Runs on the Weight of Sewage
Cable Train Runs on the Weight of Sewage
Funiculars, cable trains that were built up the sides of hills and mountains, often ran on water.

In Fribourg, Switzerland, they had a better idea. One area in town is at the top of a hill, and the other at the bottom. And if there is one thing that is always flowing from the top to the bottom, it is sewage. Instead of running in a pipe, they pump some of it into the car at the top; at the bottom, they open it up and let it run into the lower sewer. picked by Bingo 2 months ago

Was that the article you originally intended to link to? It contains no mention of a sewage powered funicular.

This is one I'm particularly fond of.

Awesome article, thanks Bingo! I can't find the reference to the sewege though, but it's a brilliant idea!
