    I looked at gMaps yesterday… Pretty sure it is not the South Table Montain railroad because the remants of the station building are not the right shape. I couldn’t find a clue about the Lookout Mountain funicular because of the antenna built on that spot.

    Yes Jean-Marie, you are right, this was the funicular “Lookout Mountain Park” (1912-1916) at Golden (Colorado) .
    Here is quite the same view today:

    C’est le “lookout mountain park funicular” je pense : on voit sur google earth un joli tracé bien droit aux environs de 39°44’05N, 105°13’58O

    Hi Jean-Marie… this is better, but you must be more specific too… I need the town and the name of the funicular 🙂

    Hello Jean-Philippe… it’s a good deduction, but can you be more specific?

    From the text and the environment, I would say somewhere in the US… Most probably in Colorado / Utah / Nevada / California / Arizona / New Mexico…
