Sweden, Stockholm, Liljeholmen Subway Station, Nybohovshissen, diagonal elevator

As part of the so-called "miljonprogrammet" ("Million Programme"), under which one million new units of housing were to be built in ten years,
Svenska Bostäder (a housing company owned by the City of Stockholm) constructed a "modern" concrete city on a mountain called Nybohov.
At about the same time, in 1964, system 2 of the underground was extended to Fruängen via Liljeholmen.
To provide a convenient means of transport up the steep Nybohov hill, an inclined elevator line was built to connect the Liljeholmen underground station with Nybohov.

At 13.00 on 5 April 1964 the line was placed in service. Internally it was called line 200.
The fare was 30 öre one way, and so each car had a conductor. Nowadays its free to ride.
