Good video. I've always been fascinated by the lift between Balbi and Dogall for it being an elevator on rails, and then being lifted up.

Fun fact about Genova: During the Winter, it can Snow on the upper districts and rain with 10 degrees in the City Centre. I Think the locals should have three or four different coats for the winters

From 4 December 2022 the horizontal oblique lift of Villa Scassi, an evolution of the horizontal vertical one of Monte Galletto, is "temporarily" suspended!!

12:50 it's not "imperial lift", but Imperia: it's the name of the street and a harbour town near Genoa :-)

Susanna Fontanarossa (Val Bisagno or Val Trebbia, 1435 - 1489) was, according to some ancient documents, the mother of Christopher Columbus. There is no certain information about the place and date of birth, but there are interpretations and traditions that would like it to originate either from Fontanarossa of Gorreto in Val Trebbia, or from Quezzi, today a district of Genoa, located in the valley of the Fereggiano stream, a tributary of the Bisagno , where a road and an elementary school have been named after her. Probably, she married Domenico Colombo, father of Cristoforo, in 1445 or 1463. From the marriage, Cristoforo, Giovanni, Bartolomeo, Giacomo (known as Diego) and a female, Bianchinella, who married Giacomo Bavarello were born. Giovanni died young, in 1484 and shortly after, his mother Susanna too.

Lunedì 1° luglio partono i lavori della revisione generale decennale dell’ascensore Montegalletto. Come previsto obbligatoriamente dalla normativa, trascorsi 10 anni dall’ultima revisione generale avvenuta nel 2014, l’impianto deve essere sottoposto ad una serie di interventi e controlli ad ampio raggio sulle parti in movimento e sulle componenti a terra. Il complesso lavoro di revisione comporta la chiusura dell’impianto da lunedì 1° luglio fino a mercoledì 7 agosto. Per diminuire i disagi alla clientela e ridurre al massimo il periodo di chiusura, nei mesi scorsi sono state già eseguite diverse lavorazioni e controlli preliminari. Tuttavia, per completare le operazioni di manutenzione, si rende ora necessario il fermo dell’ascensore, così da consentire lo smontaggio, la manutenzione e il ripristino degli organi di trasmissione. Di seguito vengono indicate le attività più significative in programma: revisione delle pulegge di deviazione delle funi e della sala macchine; revisione della puleggia motrice di sala macchine; revisione dei sistemi di automazione del collegamento vetture alla fune di trazione; revisione delle centraline idrauliche di vettura e della sala macchine; revisione dell’impianto frenante di vettura e dell’argano. Terminate queste importanti fasi degli interventi, l’ascensore verrà riaperto al pubblico; potranno seguire ulteriori brevi fasi di massa a punto. La revisione generale consentirà di avere a disposizione un impianto ancora più sicuro ed efficiente.

Beautiful video you need to visit the mountain railway Genova Casella 😊 near Manin Square

From 2022 all lifts and funiculars are free

I guess you had some ups and downs filming this....

What is the title of the music track you used in the introduction of the video?

Could any roommates or snack buddies tell me if there are other rack railways around the planet equipped with needle-free switches designed by the Swiss engineer Carl Roman Abt? In fact, although in many official documents it is called a "funicular", the legendary Principe - Granarolo railway is and has always been a rack railway. It is probably precisely because of the presence of the Abt-type switches, as well as the 1200 mm gauge, that many mistake it for a classic funicular with two counterweighted cabins like, for example, that of Sant' Anna

1:25 backrooms the hub

Disappointing video. He either walks the travel that's supposed to be in the lift , misses important ways of lifts or to his bad luck, they are closed.
