Comment

This token was used to ride the Monongahela incline cars.   They no longer huse tokens but it is  expensive.  In  2024 a round trip cost an adult  $ 3.50.  65yr and over rode for free. Disabled rider is 1.25 each direction as is children under 6.  it only travels a little over 600 feet, a bit over 2 football fields. Yet gives  beautiful view over  the  valley.  The incline is offered by My Washington in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. https://monongahelainclie.com
