The Takaotozan Railway operates a funicular line and a ropeway to Mount
Takao, a popular destination for mountain
trekking among Tokyo residents. The company was founded in September 1921.
The funicular line, commonly
known as the Takao Tozan Cable line, is the steepest railway line in Japan,
with a 608 (31°) elevation at maximum.
Distance: 1.0 km, Vertical interval: 271 m
The cars are connected at opposite ends of the cable, so they move synchronously
and counterweight each other.
It is said that the construction fee was more expensive per kilometer when
compared to other Japanese railway lines
(including the shinkansen).
