Johnstown Inclined Plane – Overview: On May 31, 1889, a devastating flood caused by failure of the South Fork Dam claimed 2,209 lives in Johnstown, PA. The Johnstown Inclined Plane, designed by renowned engineer Samuel Diescher and constructed by the Cambria Iron Company, began operating on June 1, 1891 and since that time has transported people, horses, carriages and vehicles to and from communities above the Conemaugh valley – including carrying residents to safety and emergency equipment and supplies to the valley during subsequent floods in 1936 and 1977. Among the world’s steepest vehicular inclines, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 and designated a Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark in 1994.
