Within a few blocks of the Johnstown Flood Museum, ride the world's steepest inclined plane railway and get a panoramic view of Johnstown. Built in 1890, as a direct result of the 1889 Johnstown flood so workers could live in the new suburb of Westmont, the Incline runs every 15 minutes carrying passengers and cars.

This was the best thing about visiting Johnstown Pa. Nice ride up to the top. Great view of the city of Johnstown. even if it was a rainy day when i went. You can even take your car on. But better if you just ride up without the car.
 
 
 
 
 
A Must while There

If you're in Johnstown you've gotta check this thing out. It's an awsome ride up and a nice veiw. Sadly, it's probably the most interesting thing in town.
 
 
 
 
 
Patr of history

Awsome view. The steepest incline in the U.S. Part of history. After the 1889 flood the incline was built. In 1936 4000 people rode the incline to safety after another flood. To ride it is to be a part of history.
