Also from the Zurich trip: Here's my old friend the Polybahn (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polybahn) as seen from the back of the Hotel Limmathof. My memories of writing the first Spider-Man novel are full of the sound of these good creatures toodling up and down the hill.

What’s better than watching the Polybahn of #Zürich burst out of a building?

Taking a ride on it!

I love the fact that the cars have an open viewing platform at the upwards-facing end.

There is a song in Swiss German about the Polybahn funicular railway in Zurich. Sung by Trio Eugster about the Polybahn and the city of Zurich.

Video ride with the funicular and the song 🤩

What do you see in this clip?

Sure, there's the Polybahn, the 1889 incline cable car that pops out of a city-center building.

But also note electric tramway passing under it, and all the people walking up the stairs to get to #Zürich 's Polytechnic.

True sustainable urban mobility, in one video!

I’m in #Zürich for 18 hours, so you better believe I’m going to take a ride on the Polybahn!

I love any form of #transit that bursts from a building.

I wonder what it’s like to live in the apartment directly above the wires?

And there are buses—a lot of them. They have signal priority on major streets. Most are electric: check out these bi-articulated trolley buses going under the Polybahn tracks.

Que mal repartida la vida… la Politècnica de Zuric (ETH) té un funicular (el Polybahn), la de Catalunya només tenia suspensos i decepcions 😔

Polybahn, Zürich 🇨🇭 🚞 #funicular
🚋 What’s red, rides on rails, and takes you straight to ETH Zürich? 🎓

The Polybahn! Since 1889, this funicular has been carrying students & visitors up Zürich’s hills. A short ride with a long history—who’s taken a trip on it? ⛰️

Status report, "Photos from a Road Trip" con'td: Here's a hotel I remember with fondness, as I wrote a large portion of a Spider-Man novel there (back-facing room, with a view of the Polybahn running up the hill to the Uni). A choice spot. Many runs to the Co-Op across the river for junk food. 😏

I used to have german lessons in that building, right over the Polybahn rails. This was the view from my seat. Very peculiar.

Goodbye, Zürich! On my last day: 3 cable cars, 1 cogwheel train, a boat ride, and countless trams. This city nails public transport. Pictured here: the iconic Polybahn funicular.
