The funicular operated normally until 1976, and for tourism until 1994. But due to the bad condition of the old structure of Grota Funda viaduct it was closed that year. dan Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > wonder if that influenced the broader gauge > choice, of having cables , when did it stop > operating?
