How close does the game get to the real place?

In the game

The tiny funicular railway climbing Bunker Hill, one of the game's 30 landmarks.

The real place

Angels Flight opened in 1901 and calls itself the world's shortest railway. In 1947 it ran from Hill Street at 3rd Street, where the game shows it; it was dismantled in 1969 and rebuilt in 1996 half a block south, with the original cars Olivet and Sinai.

Visiting

Rides cost a small fare and take about a minute. Ride up to California Plaza, then walk down to Grand Central Market across Hill Street at the bottom.
