The worlds steepest funicular railway has opened to the public in Switzerland.
Specially designed carriages tilt as it goes up the incline, meaning the floor stays level.
The train climbs 110m over a distance of 100m, making it the worlds steepest railway to date.
The Stoos Bahn took 14 years to build at a cost of 52m Swiss Francs, or £40 million.
In mountainous Switzerland, where children regularly use cable cars to get to school.
If passengers feel a little fainthearted, you will be glad to know the journey lasts just 4 minutes.
But Ivan Steiner, spokesman for the railway, said the project's completion had made everyone “very proud”.
