To ask the Scottish Government what benefits it considers repairs to the Cairngorm Mountain Railway will bring compared with its replacement with a gondola service.
The Cairngorm Mountain Full Business Case concluded that reinstatement of the funicular is more cost-effective and will provide a service that is less prone to severe weather related disruption than replacement with a gondola service. The funicular will attract greater visitor numbers and therefore have greater local economic impact.
