Ride the Dusquesne Incline in Pittsburgh

On our trip with Visit Pittsburgh, we got to ride the Dusquesne Incline.

Dusquesne Incline in Pittsburgh

I was really excited about this because the city of Cincinnati used to have several inclines but we no longer have any in our city. The city of Pittsburgh still has two that help serve the public transportation needs in the city.

The Duquesne Incline is a working museum. You have history and you have function because people still use it for their everyday public transportation needs.
