While traveling in Tennessee and visiting Chattanooga with its famous civil war battlefield I couldn't help but to notice the cable driven incline railroad known as the Lookout Mountain Railway with its 72.7% grade that bills it as the steepest passenger railway in the world and being a railroad fan myself I couldn't wait to jump on board this unique ride. The view from its windowed carriage on a clear day is nothing short of spectacular as shown in this photograph that I took while standing at the rear of the car.
