However
the chosen system was the key mechanism which allowed SNH to be confident
that the operation of the funicular would not adversely impact on
the European sites. As pointed out earlier, our remit is not to merely
preserve Scotland's natural heritage - we have to give people the
opportunity to enjoy the countryside.
Therefore although we managed to
find a solution to the original funicular railway I think enough
is enough. Here at SNH we cannot be seen to advocate any more damage
to this extremely fragile

environment
and we oppose the proposals for an extension to the current funicular
railway.
