Artist's Description
Colorized photo from 1906
Original title: Price's Hill incline
Photographer: Detroit Publishing
Location: 8th Street and Glenway Ave, Cincinnati, OH
This is the Price Hill incline (often called Buttermilk Mountain). It was built in 1874, demolished in 1943. The track was 800ft in length, with a rise of 350ft. It was located at the very end of 8th St, just where the mountain starts.
This incline was unusual, it contained two separate funiculars. The one on the left was for passengers only, it had 2 sets of cars, that had enclosed boxes that contained people. The fare was 5 cents a person which is about $1.46 today. The one on the right was for industrial and commercial purposes. Each one had the capacity to hold 3 to 4 fully loaded carts with people. It cost 85 cents a cart, which is about $25 today. The entire trip took 5 minutes to go up or down.
The right half had a 200hp poppet valve duplicate engine, with a winding drum of 13ft in diameter, I believe...
About Mike Savad

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
