This was sent to my wife's Facebook page; it's just a cool photo, and thought it worth sharing (as did she):

It's supposed to be near Budapest.

How many traction fans here would like to live in a place like this?

I don't know. I've lived right on 3 trolley bus lines and adjacent to a BART line. I think the romance would wear, especially with the cars scraping around that s-curve there.

I immediately imagined the place still there, looking just like that, with rusting but intact rails and overhead in place, just waiting for someone with a little money to come along and make it all happen again.
I assume this place is now lost to the ages? Probably a parking lot now...

A fascinating operation! And sadly, as is common here, a favorite route that is badly missed by the public.

Maybe it will be revived; I hope it is.
