Amazing news!

“Reconstruction on the Angels Flight Railway continues. The two historic cars, Olivet and Sinai, have been completely rebuilt and are in storage offsite. The Station House and Arch exteriors have been restored. A new drive system is being designed and will be installed in
late 2006, when the Flight is expected to reopen. To help finance the rebuilding, the nonprofit Angels Flight Railway Foundation welcomes donations at P.O. Box 712345, Los Angeles 90071.”

Angel’s Flight is closed down- it has been since 1996 when it crashed and killed a tourist. For those who don’t know, Angel’s Flight was a trolley that transported people up and down Bunker Hill in downtown Los Angeles. It was built in the 1930’s, and it had just re-opened after a 30 year hiatus while the city demolished the victorian neighborhood on Bunker Hill, because it was “blighted”, meaning too many dark skinned people lived there.
I’m afraid it will never run again, but the remains are still visible.
