I am confused. Ground slots and tilted floor indicate this is some kind of cable car or funicular, but there's electrical catenary too?

(sorry, not well versed in this. Please forgive me if I say something stupid or wrong)

Basically it's just an electric tram that goes up and down all day. It has similar looks and purpose to a funicular, but it works like a regular tram with a very limited route.

So the pavement slits are purely historical or cosmetic?
