Tourists flocked to ride the historic funicular, which had been operating for over a century, connecting the lower town to the hilltop castle.
As the funicular ascended, passengers marveled at the engineering feat that allowed the railway to climb such steep inclines.
What is a "funicular"?

A funicular is a type of railway system that uses two cars connected by a cable, which move on tracks that are usually built on steep slopes. One car goes up the hill while the other comes down, using gravity to balance the movement. The cable pulls the cars up and down the slope, making it easier to travel on steep terrain. Funiculars are often used in places with mountains or hills, such as tourist destinations or cities with hilly landscapes, to transport people quickly and efficiently.

What is a "concourse"?

A concourse is a spacious, open area or hallway within a building, often found in places like train stations or airports. It serves as a central space where people can walk, wait, or gather before moving on to other parts of the building. In transportation centers, concourses are usually located near the entrance or platforms, making it easy for passengers to access different services or directions. They can include features like ticket counters, seating, and shops, helping people navigate and prepare for their travels.

What is a "rear end"?

A rear end is the back portion of a vehicle, including the bumper, taillights, trunk, and rear axle. It helps protect the vehicle's internal components and provides space for storage, such as in the trunk or cargo area. The rear end also plays a role in the vehicle’s safety, as it absorbs impact in case of a rear-end collision. The design of the rear end can influence the vehicle’s aerodynamics, stability, and appearance. It is an important part of the vehicle's overall structure and functionality.

What is a "compact car"?

A compact car is a small, fuel-efficient vehicle designed for easy handling and parking. It typically has a smaller body size compared to larger cars, making it ideal for city driving and tight spaces. Despite its size, a compact car often offers enough room for passengers and basic storage. These cars are popular for their affordability, fuel economy, and convenience, especially for people who do not need a lot of space but still want a practical vehicle for everyday use.

What is "automatic number plate recognition"?

Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) is a technology that uses cameras and software to read and identify the license plates of vehicles. It captures images of number plates, then processes the information to compare with databases for tasks like checking vehicle registration or identifying stolen cars. This system is often used by law enforcement for monitoring traffic, enforcing regulations, or assisting in investigations. ANPR can be deployed in locations such as highways, parking lots, or at security checkpoints.

It is hinged at the bottom and can be lowered or swung open to make it easier to load and unload items. Some tailgates are also designed to support extra functions, such as serving as a workbench or providing additional storage space.
