Duquesne Incline is an inclined funicular located near South Side in Pittsburgh and ascending on Mount Washington. It started operation in 1877 and has a 30-degree (0.52-radian) angle of inclination. It also has an unusual five-foot (1.5-meter) gauge. The locomotive was steam-powered and was built to carry cargo up and down the mountain in the late 19th Century. The incline was later refurbished and is one of the city's most popular tourist attractions.
