In parallel with the thread I have started about Funicular railways I wonder whether forum members might like a thread about Rack Railways. I believe that the Snowdon Mountain Railway is the only one now operating in the UK. Are you awarded of others, and what about on the continent? https://www.snowdonrailway.co.uk https://www.snowdonrailway.co.uk/journey-to-the-summit
Here is a link to a rack railway which no longer exists. It was in the South of France.

Is this a worthwhile theme?
Strangely enough, there’s one in Australia. https://www.perisher.com.au/plan-your-trip/new-to-perisher/skitube
