Falkenried was a former tram and metro carriage developer and manufacturer (1882–1965) as well as a bus developer (until 1980) based in Hamburg, Germany. In 1918 it became part of Hamburger Hochbahn plc, since June 1968 it is a subsidiary of it. The name Falkenried originates of the street in Eppendorf where the factory was situated (until 1999). Today it is a bus maintenance subsidiary of the Hochbahn located at a bus garage in Hummelsbüttel.
In 1897, the company made a delivery of fifteen horsecars to Kristiania Sporveisselskab of Oslo, Norway. They were long and remained in service until 1939, although they were used as trailers most of their life. For Kristiania Elektriske Sporvei, the company built one tram and trailer in 1899, four trams in 1913/14 and two in 1925.
