The Mount Lowe incline looks like a slow roller coaster that goes up and down on a straight track. It’s not seen much in this clip.
I wonder why I cannot find anything significant on the Pacific Electric “Mount Lowe” Interurban 450-class cars. No info on the history of the cars (and photos of them) can be found anywhere on the internet.
