=== Closure === The closure of the Cairngorm Mountain Railway funicular was due to "health and safety concerns" and "structural problems" according to reports in summer 2019. At the time, an engineering investigation was still underway to determine whether modifications would be "achievable and affordable", according to its then-owner, the Scottish government's Highlands and Islands Enterprise which also owns Cairngorm Mountain ski centre.<ref>{{cite news|url= https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-48557182|title=Cairngorm funicular has a future if repairs 'achievable'|work=BBC News |date=7 June 2019 |access-date=11 January 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/highlands/1796283/the-return-of-james-bond-filming-is-giving-the-highlands-a-licence-to-thrill/ |title=The return of James Bond filming is giving the Highlands a licence to thrill |work=The Press and Journal |first=Alistair |last=Munro |date=15 July 2019 |access-date=11 January 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.cairngormmountain.co.uk/funicular-railway-maintenance/ |title=Funicular Railway Operations |publisher=Cairngorm Mountain |date=17 September 2018}}</ref> The final findings of the consultants, SE Group, were released in July 2019, but a decision on how to proceed had not yet been made at that time.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.hie.co.uk/regional-information/area-information/inner-moray-firth/cairngorm.html |url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191202060050/http://www.hie.co.uk/regional-information/area-information/inner-moray-firth/cairngorm.html|archive-date=2 December 2019|title=Feasibility assessment and strategic plan - Cairngorm Mountain |publisher=Highlands and Islands Enterprise |access-date=11 January 2021}}</ref>
