Zufällig habe ich es geschafft, mit der Opicina-Straßenbahn zu fahren, während sie 2025 einige Monate lang unterwegs war.
Aktuell ist der Betrieb wieder – wie davor seit 2016 – eingestellt.
Der Wagen erklimmt das Karstplateau über der Hafenstadt. Im steilsten Teil der Strecke wird er von einem Beiwagen angeschoben (bzw am Weg hinunter abgebremst). Ein einzigartiges System von 1935!

I heard about it trough a toot here in the fediverse (not allowed to quote it), and had to find some more info.
Trough my searches I found my new favorite magazine: Daz magazin für urbane seilbahnen, which is a part of Seilbhanen International! A magazine all about not only urban godola trams but also aerial cableways/tramways and funiculars – for transit and for tourism!

Love it! Such awesome ways to travel :D

Hello from the lovely #Opicina 🇮🇹 #tram. The line climbs from the port city of #Trieste up to the Karst plateau. On the steepest section, a rope-operated pod pushes the tramcar up (and slows it down on its way back) making it a sort of #funicular. The trams were built 90 years ago, in 1935.

Pfaffenthal-Kircheberg (2/2)
🇫🇷 Encore une vue de la station inférieure alors que nous grimpons vers la station supérieure. La station supérieure vue de l'intérieur et de l'extérieur. On remarque la remarquable intermodalité du site.
🇬🇧 One more view on the lower station as we "climb" to the upper station of the funicular. A view of the inside of the upper station and one from the Outside where we can see what "intermodality" means.

The scenic #Tram di #Opicina could be reopened very soon. The tram line suffered many interruptions in the past, from 2005-2006, from 2012-2014 and since 2016 until present.
The line was partly built as a #funicular and its trams are more than 80 years old. When in operation, they run every 20 minutes, which is the shortest possible interval on the single track line. It's popular with inhabitants as well as tourists and runs at full capacity all the time. Some pictures from 2014:

Unexpected free day? Young person to keep busy & amuse away from screens? An improvised Mini 🇨🇭🇫🇷 public transport Grand Tour beckons, close to home. Around and across the lake we go, with fish&chips (« perches du lac ») & a fabric shop along the way. Genève-Thonon-Lausanne-Genève. Fun!

Nice to stumble upon this video of the Trieste–Opčine tram/funicular, which I enjoyed travelling on while on holiday in Italy and Slovenia a little over 20 years ago 😊
This was before I had any means of recording video, and when I only had a film camera, but it feels very familiar
