I've decided not to add 'Masada' to the Funicular connection, as it is a Cable Car according to the pictures that I can find on the web (it's already part of the Cable Car connection).

Someone also asked for the difference between a cable car and a funicular. Full explanations are available at Wikipedia, but the easy version is:
- a funicular is like a little train riding up and down tracks on a slope
- a cable car is a small cabin that dangles on ropes in the air and is pulled up and down
