masmith, I would assume that the desired place of issue will be the appropriate railway station, however I suspect that so long as you go there the night before you need them you will probably be fine, you have I take it spotted that kids between 6 and 15 only count as a half person ?
You could always try phoning them, they're open Saturday mornings if that helps

Indeed I have. So do I take it in Wengen you buy your lift passes from the railway station, is there not a seperate lift pass office ?

We stay in Lauterbrunnen and usually have 70-90 people in our group. They need to know how many Adults, Teens (16-19), Children and Oldies (62 and above).
If they have a days notice they usually have them ready. I would suggest you use the smart cards (5 CHF) refundable as these can be kept in a pocket when going through
the lifts etc.
If you have a large group you could also ask for a reserved carriage on the train up to Schiedegg, we usually reserve a train in the evening for the following morning.
I don't know how that works in Wengen but the staff at the station in Lauterbrunnen are excellent, they once organised me a train in a morning with one hours notice when the weather was bad
and we decided not to go to the Schilthorn.
Suggest you phone them, I have found everyone in Lauterbrunnen and Wengen very helpful. If you are going to Wengen you need to get from Lauterbrunnen anyway so that may be your better option.

escmatters, wow, that's a group, put's our group of 16 into insignificance, don't think we're large enough to qualify for a reserved carriage, sounds good though !
I thought the smart cards were mandatory now, is that not so. We're arriving on the train from the airport so already have travel all the way to Wengen planned. Due to arrive Wengen about 4pm on the Saturday, so will just make a quick call this w/end to make sure that this would give them sufficient time to prepare the passes for the following morning. If so then it's happy days.

masmith, I don't think you will have a problem, and yes the railway stations issue the ski passes (and I think the cable car station as well but don't quote me on that), Wengen railway station is very efficient I was once told that if I wanted it they could issue a train ticket to Moscow and beyond, try doing that from a village railway station in the UK
