Re: Multiple People Dead After Funicular Crash in Centre of Lisbon
Video of the wagon in question filmed less than five minutes before the disaster.

I'd bet that is wasn't any Funicular for those passengers.

Re: Multiple People Dead After Funicular Crash in Centre of Lisbon
Not exactly. The cable got detached from the car at the top but the cable itself didn't break. Pneumatic brake was activated but wasn't effective enough to arrest the speed (probably not well maintained). There is a short premilinary report already if someone is interested in technical details: https://www.gpiaaf.gov.pt/upload/processos/d054239.pdf |
