History

Until the timetable change on 10 December 2023, bus line 621 operated between Rapperswil railway station and Jona, Buechstrasse Ost via Jona railway station. This line stopped operations due to the increase in frequency of line 622, which mostly uses the same route. Line 995 operated between Rapperswil railway station and Hummelberg, but was truncated in December 2023 for the same reason. Line 995 now also serves the leg from Jona Center to Jona, Buechstrasse Ost, replacing line 621.
