Cape Point Funicular

Post by John Ashworth »

Photos by John Ashworth, 22nd May 2012

Cape Town was cold, and usually Cape Point is one of the windiest places I've ever come across. But on this occasion, despite the fact that it is winter, it was gloriously hot and sunny with scarcely a breath of wind.

One time I had a ride with it but unfortunately I hav no pictures.
I don't know why. And I can't remember if the windows either out of glass or piastic.
