Cool! Lets go for a ride up the side of a hill at 2 miles an hour!
Rest of
Dresden, and back to Berlin

Here's Brian standing in front of the tram's tracks.

Here's the tracks heading up the hill. The tram is pulled via the cable you see overhead, guided by pulleys along the way, sorta like a ski lift.

>>> The views on the way up. Woo hoo!

Here's our ticket, Here's our car. There's two of them; one counterbalances the other, so when one is going up, the other is going down. The back row is about 8 feet higher than the front row. It holds 40 people.
