Lynton To Lynmouth Cliff Railway (Sun, 01 Apr 2007 12:23:09 PDT) Lynton To Lynmouth Cliff Railway bigwallypants 2 min - 1 Apr 2007 Video Produced by Rewind Studios http://www.rewindstudios.co.uk The Soundtrack is Somethings There by Bob Kilgore http://www.myspace.com/bobkilgore Take a ride on the Lynton to Lynmouth Cliff Railway, North Devon, England. The video was recorded on 25th March 2007 Q & A Q: Who designed it? A: George Marks - believed to have been a 'disciple' of Isambard Kingdom Brunel designed the cliff railway. He later became Baron Marks of Woolwich. Q: Who built it? A: The Majority of the funding for the railway was provided by Sir George Newnes, publisher of Tit Bits and The Strand. Sir George had a passion for Lynton & Lynmouth - and recognised the enormous tourism potential. It was this vision which led him to back not only the Cliff Railway, but also Lynton's town Hall (1900) and the main Barnstaple to Lynton Railway (1898). Q: When did it open? A: Work began on the lift construction in 1887. It took less than three years to complete - a remarkable achievement considering the entire excavation relied on manual labour. The lift is now a listed monument and the buildings have been listed to Grade II. Q: Who runs it? A: The inaugural decent was on 9th April 1890 and it has been in operation ever since ... Even during the two World Wars (although on a restricted service). An Act of Parliament formed the Lynmouth & Lynton Lift Company in 1888. A further Act of Parliament gave the company perpetual rights to the water from the Lyn Valley - The railway's extraordinary power source. Q: What is it's length? A: The rails are 862 feet long. The top station is 500 feet above the lower station - giving an inclination of 1:1.75. Q: How does it run? A: The lift system works on a simple balancing principal. The water comes through 5" pipes from the West Lynn River - more than a mile away - and is stored in reservoirs. Each car has a 700 Gallon tank mounted between the wheels (plus a smaller 10 gallon tank as the reservoir for the braking system). As the water is discharged from the lower car, the 'heavier' top car descends so pulling the lower car up the cliff. Q: How are the cars connected A: The two lift cars are connected via a continuous cable which runs around two 5ft 6in diameter pulley wheels. Mounted at the top and bottom of the track bed. Q: What is it's capacity A: Each car holds up to 40 passengers and weigh 10 Tons when fully loaded. http://www.wolseleywildlife.com/ This video meets VPG standards
