TV reporter Clive Gunnell is on the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway in North Devon. The water-powered funicular railway is unique and run using water from the nearby River Lyn and travelling up and down between Lynton five hundred feet up on the top of the cliff and the harbour village of Lynmouth. The two cable cars use gravity and water tanks to move up and down. The lift displaces water only if its needs to becuase it is also dependent on the weight of its passengers!
