Climbing many vertical meters over a short distance. A delight for passionate mountaineers and hikers. And also for passengers who ride on our funiculars.
Funicular
Tailored to your needs
CWA’s funicular cars climb the steepest slopes with ease – even in wind and weather. Transport capacity and inclination define the limits. Everything else is decided by the customer. We work closely with our customers to create and design individually tailored cars. Ideas are turned into reality with a great love of detail. No matter whether it’s contemporary shapes or retro-style cars. Our experience pays off.
CWA’s funicular cars carry large groups of commuters in public transit systems as well as tourists on journeys of discovery – with spectacular efficiency.
Funicular cars from CWA run in all winds and weathers. And they do so with extreme reliability for many years. Throughout that time, they become a distinguishing feature of their surroundings.
The trip on a funicular provides a relaxing break. Passengers enjoy the view and the high level of comfort. Comfortable seating, standing platforms and, above all, a peaceful trip away from high volumes of traffic.
Our highly qualified employees are proud of the products they manufacture. That inspires them to work with great care and precision – down to the very last finishing touch.
The clean-cut shape of the car is also reflected in the style of the interior, all the way through to the very last detail.
Our cars are extremely reliable, maintenance-friendly and durable. And if you want to change the color or modernize the fittings at a later date – no problem!
Maximum ride and spatial comfort for passengers is a must. The level access to the car is generously dimensioned, the seats are comfortable and ventilation is designed to suit the location.
No other funicular car offers more panoramic views. Generously proportioned windows give you a new perspective on your surroundings. Down into the valley, across the city and out over the sea.
We use traditional Swiss values to your advantage. Many years of experience combined with in-depth expertise, an inventive spirit with a penchant for precision, and a talent for meeting deadlines and keeping promises.
We don’t stand still or rest on our laurels. Since 1939, we have been continuously improving on a daily basis – for our passengers and for the ropeway operators who place their trust in our cars.
The longest ropeway in the world opened on the Vietnamese island of Hòn Thom is in every respect an installation of superlatives.
Steep, steeper, Stoos
