"In Heslach to the southwest of Stuttgart there’s an elegant funicular railway shuttling up the slope from the Südheimer Platz U-Bahn station to the Stuttgart Degerloch cemetery. The railway line is part of the public transport network, has heritage protection, and its cars are made from dark teakwood. When it was complete in 1929 the Standseilbahn was the first semi-automatic cable railway in Europe. Those two handsome cars are originals, even if one had to be restored after being hit by a tree in 1999. The trip to the top takes four minutes, and drops you off at a graveyard in the forest. "
