I'm in favor of tagging inclined elevators as funiculars whenever they
may resemble one. Perhaps an additional tag like
railway:funicular=inclined_elevator could be invented for those
interested in the technical details on how the

My main issue with this is not technical details about how they work,
but about how they are used. They look like an elevator, act like one
and serve exactly the same purpose. You press a button, they come, the
doors open, you press a button inside to go up or down, etc.
They are used on
I've looked into these.
Most inclined elevators seem to also operate with cables, with the
difference being that in a funicular there are 2 cars attached to 1 cable,
so one ascends while the other descends, but in an inclined elevator each
car (or there might only be 1 car) is attached to a

Yes, but this is a node, not a way. Inclined elevators require a way and those
are not displayed properly.

+1, I would also think the wiki is fine, after all, a way seems the
I'd taken both inclined elevator and funicular railway. I think it could seen
as two different kind of things.
Inclined elevators travel with short distance in most of the time, their
structure is quite different that it shouldn't be bracket with the other.
I think the description in OSM wiki
It is supported by the wiki:

There is an issue here, closed in 2016, "at least until a discussion on the
tagging list suggests otherwise."

The one I am talking about is really an elevator. It's the one on the left in

Is it both something that makes sense, accepted by community
and supported by Wiki?
In such case, have you checked whatever this feature was already requested
for mentioned software?
It is both rare(?) and tricky to implement in rendering, but editors have
greater freedom to handle
this.
And
This one looks to me like a small funicular railway.
But OSM Wiki includes "the ascending and descending vehicles counterbalancing
each other"
as one of important characteristic.

This is a very long one and there is even an operator in it:

Most are the length of the escalators they are adjacent to.

Hi,
My apologies if this has already been discussed several times or if it's not
the place to ask.
I was mapping a public inclined elevator in a dedicated building (it only
contains the elevator and three parallel escalators). This is really a standard
elevator running parallel to the
