The Duquesne Incline (/duːˈkeɪn/) is a funicular located near Pittsburgh's South Side neighborhood and scaling Mt. Washington in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States. Designed by Hungarian-American engineer Samuel Diescher, the incline was completed in 1877. The lower station is in the Second Empire style. Together with the incline, which rises 400 feet (122 m) in height, at a 30-degree angle, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. The incline is unusual for having a track gauge standard used only in Finland, Russia, and Mongolia.

  • Die Duquesne Incline ist eine der beiden noch bestehenden und betriebenen Standseilbahnen in Pittsburgh im US-Bundesstaat Pennsylvania. Sie überwindet das steile Südufer gegenüber dem Zusammenfluss von Allegheny River und Monongahela River, die sich hier zum Ohio River vereinigen. Diese Inclines wurden zumeist im letzten Quartal des 19. Jahrhunderts eingerichtet, um den Stahlarbeitern, die auf den angrenzenden Hochflächen der Stadt wohnten, den schnellen Zugang zu ihren unten am Flussufer gelegenen Arbeitsstätten zu ermöglichen.
