Yes AUSTRIA is correct for the oldest funicular in the world...also it is the very oldest RAILROAD in the world!

b) The LONGEST Funicular - Switzerland (Firstgear)
c) The OLDEST Funicular - Austria (Storm)

Ummm.....are we staying in Europe for the steepest as well?

Spain? :)

Nope Nope and Nope

Liechtenstein?
