List of inclined elevators

This is a list of inclined elevators, organised by place within country and region.
An inclined elevator is distinguished from the similar funicular railway in that its cars operate independently whereas funiculars are composed of two vehicles that synchronously counterbalance one another. Despite this distinction, some inclined elevators use the term funicular in their names, which is seen in both systems converted from funiculars to inclined elevators, such as the Old Quebec Funicular in Quebec City and the Montmartre Funicular in Paris, and in systems built originally as inclined elevators, such as the 100 Street Funicular in Edmonton and the Ljubljana Castle funicular. Some English language installations use the term "inclinator", a portmanteau of incline and elevator. This list includes counter-weighted, non-counter-weighted and climbing elevators operating on fixed and variable inclinations.
