Angels Flight is a landmark funicular railway in the Bunker Hill district of downtown Los Angeles, California. The funicular has operated on two slightly different sites, using the same cars. The first Angels Flight operated from 1901 until it was closed in 1969 when its location was redeveloped. The second reopened nearby in 1996, and closed again in 2001 after a serious accident caused the death of one passenger and left seven others injured. It reopened on March 15, 2010.
