Summary: A funicular experience but the weather gods were not on our side. The clouds had rolled in and the spectacular views were limited at times. The walk were challenging with walking stick but doable. The food and service were good but prices were a bit in the clouds. A good experience for the price.

Summary: The train was super fast and queues are fast moving. It only took about 10 minutes for the train ride which was really quick compared to the old train
