Hornblower Niagara Funicular

The Hornblower Niagara Funicular was built, as the Clifton Incline, in 1894. The line was renamed as the Maid of the Mist Incline in 1973. It closed in 1990 when it was replaced by a set of four elevators. After several years of construction, Hornblower Niagara Cruises reopened the incline for the 2019 season as the Hornblower Niagara Funicular to enable more traffic to the boat tour.

After several years of construction, Hornblower Niagara Cruises reopened the incline for the 2019 season as the Hornblower Niagara Funicular to enable more traffic to the boat tour. The new system was built by AnCam Solutions Company Limited of Oakville, Ontario and Heller Manus of San Francisco. The new incline uses the same foundation and substructure of the original incline but with new, climate-controlled cars, and operates alongside the elevators.
