Things are stirring in the Bernese Jura!

Ligerz - Tessenberg Bahn

The carriage

The new car with orange tinted windows!

VINIFUNI, this is the new name and new logo of the funicular (Vini = wine).

Gangloff designed the new car. It is composed of one single big compartment with one central door. All the windows are tinted with orange color. Inside the carriage, everything looks orange, even the landscape thru the windows!

The carriage is the same as the one of Saint Imier funicular.
The single car is in fact a car of a funicular with two counterbalanced cars and a passing loop!
The left side of the cabin has two wide flat wheels and the right side of the cabin has two double-flanged wheels to guide the cabin. The jaws of the emergency brakes are fixed on the right side of the cabin.
At Saint Imier, the wheels are inverted...
