Understanding Wattman World Compliance Certifications

Our certifications and conformity assessments are updated proactively to align with evolving EN and international safety standards. Complete documentation is supplied with every delivery, including conformity declarations, component test reports, and inspection records.

Where required, our engineering team provides technical assistance to help clients meet national and regional regulatory requirements, ensuring full compliance, streamlined approvals, and safe daily operations. Wattman World certifications help reduce administrative delays, improve safety performance, and maintain long-term reliability for your venue.

Are Wattman trains certified for international operation?

Yes. All Wattman World trains are designed and manufactured in accordance with recognised European (EN) and international safety standards for design, construction, and quality assurance.

Independent certification and testing are carried out by TÜV, a globally accredited inspection and certification body. This ensures every train meets the highest standards for safety, reliability, and public operation worldwide.

What is TÜV and why is it important?

TÜV is an independent international certification body that inspects, tests, and certifies products for compliance and safety. Their approval ensures your Wattman train meets strict global standards.

Can I operate a Wattman train without tracks in public areas?

Yes. Wattman trackless trains are designed for safe operation on flat, hard surfaces in both indoor and outdoor environments.

However, local regulations for public transport or amusement rides may vary depending on the country or region. Our compliance team can provide all necessary documentation — including conformity certificates and safety specifications — to support your local approval or licensing process.

What makes Wattman trains different from other options?

Our trains are built with premium materials, zero-emission technology, and TÜV-certified safety features. Operators choose Wattman for its combination of low maintenance, high ROI, and strong brand reputation.

Where can I find certification documents for my train?

Certification documents are provided upon delivery and can also be requested via our support team. We supply all necessary compliance paperwork for insurance or inspection purposes.

Can a Wattman train be used outdoors?

Yes. Wattman trains can operate outdoors, provided they are stored indoors when not in use. They should never be left in the rain—even under covers—as this may compromise components and void warranty conditions.

Can a Wattman train operate on public roads?

No. Wattman trains are not designed for public road use. They are built specifically for pedestrian areas and private terrains. Operating on public roads would require a special exemption, which most countries do not grant.

Our sister companyThe Train Company USA Inc., specializes in larger Tourist and Road trains. This means you can rely on the same trusted expertise and US compliance standards when choosing bigger road-going trains for your venue.

Are Wattman trains accessible for passengers with reduced mobility?

Yes. The Maxi Express can be configured with an optional accessible wagon equipped with a rear ramp, providing safe and convenient boarding for wheelchair users or passengers with limited mobility.

This option helps venues meet European and international accessibility standards, ensuring inclusivity for all guests. The accessible wagon is available as an upgrade and can be integrated into the Maxi Express caboose.
