Last Trip of Summer--Chattanooga: Incline Railway

After Ruby Falls we headed down the mountain to ride the Incline Railway.  This is something that was fine the first time, but only partially worth the money they charge for it and definitely not something we would pay to do again.

You get in the train car (the main draw for the family as Aaron LOVES trains)

The view going backward up the mountain.  They said the railway is used often by locals that live at the top of the mountain if the mountain road is too icy to drive down or even for women who go into labor and need to get down the mountain fast (and later when we drove down the mountain I decided I would probably have ridden it all the time if I was pregnant instead of driving up and down that extremely twisty road--especially when I had morning sickness!)

The view from the top

 

 Aaron and Carter decided they were done looking at the view--subtle hint :)

I thought it was bad to go backwards up a very steep incline....that is until we went forward down a very steep incline.
