Japan Funicular Map — Inclined Railways and Cable Lines

Japan interactive funicular map. Inclined cable-hauled lines, cliff railways and counterbalanced funicular routes from OpenStreetMap contributors.

Japan funicular railways drawn from data mapped by OpenStreetMap contributors: cable-hauled lines on steep gradients, often linking waterfronts to hilltop towns, mountain resorts or urban districts. Funiculars use two cars counterbalancing each other on a single track with a passing loop, or a single car on a slope-hauled cable. At low zoom, routes appear as centroid points; zoom in for full line geometry.

Japan has 162 mapped funicular segments.
