With an incline of 110 percent, the new Stoosbahn has replaced the Gelmerbahn, which had 106 percent, as the steepest funicular railway. What's special are the barrel-shaped compartments, which always rotate during the ride so that the floor of the cabin remains in the horizontal plane.

The Schwyz–Stoos funicular is a standard-gauge funicular railway in the canton of Schwyz. It connects Schlattli (Hinteribrig) in the municipality of Schwyz with the tourist resort of Stoos, located above Morschach. Over a length of 1740 metres, it overcomes an altitude difference of 744 m[1] and has a maximum gradient of 47.73° (110%) below the passing loop, making it the steepest funicular railway in the world. It was opened on 15 December 2017 and replaced the Schwyz–Stoos funicular that had been in operation since 1933.

It's worth making a short stop at the world record track. Since the journey only takes a few minutes, it is quite possible to see the Stoosbahn.
