How does that work in practice? If one person takes it across to the
Island, what happens when the next person comes along wanting to travel
in the same direction? Or what happens if it's been left on the land
side, and someone on the island wants to get off?
My own suggestion for a transport oddity would be London's only
funicular railway on the eastern side of the northern bank of the wobbly
(Millennium) bridge. One could call it a sloping lift, but it really is
a cable-hauled funicular, just a very short one. Best of all, it's free.
.... assuming that it works as it is often out of service.
