Angels Flight, the historic funicular climbing Bunker Hill in downtown Los Angeles, resumed operations Thursday for the first time since 2013. First opened on New Year’s Eve in 1901 half a block north of its current location, Angels Flight once transported well-to-do Bunker Hill residents to jobs in downtown L.A. for a penny a ride. Angels Flight reopened at its new location in 1996. Operations were halted again in 2011 and Angels Flight was shut down altogether after a derailment in 2013. He said he plans to incorporate rides on Angels Flight into future tours.
