Angels Flight is a narrow-gauge funicular railway in Downtown Los Angeles that climbs about 90 metres of track between Hill Street and California Plaza on Bunker Hill. First opened in 1901, it was moved half a block and reopened in 1996. Its two orange and black cars, Sinai and Olivet, counterbalance each other on the slope.
