After reading these posts I was just thinking about we could really use more energy efficient systems like counterbalanced cars today. Then it occurred to me that there is a modern day equivalent in Seattle. The new First Hill streetcar has a trolley wire for the uphill track only. Coming downhill, the cars use a combination of batteries and gravity.
