The passenger side of the Price Hill Incline opened in July 1874, and the freight side opened two years later. The Price Hill Incline was the only Cincinnati incline with two separate sets of tracks. The "Highland Mary" and the "Lilly of the Valley," named for Rees Price's daughters, were the cars that carried passengers. An accident in 1943 led to inspection of the Price Hill Incline and it was determined that the repairs would be too costly, so the incline was closed down.
