  Apparently not! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incline_elevator https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incline_elevator It seems the distinction is that funiculars operate in balanced pairs, while elevators are independent units.

    Funnily enough that page has a funicular listed under the incline elevator examples

    I went to Germany this year and I made a point of planning a visit to a funicular. To my great disappointment, the funicular we found in Freiburg am Breisgau used a counterweight instead of another car. Now I wonder if it was really a funicular at all.
