Thalwil railway station


Thalwil railway station is a railway station in the municipality of Thalwil in the Swiss canton of Zurich. The station is located within fare zone 150 of the Zürcher Verkehrsverbund.
Thalwil is a junction station, situated on the Lake Zurich left bank (Zurich to Chur) main line and the Thalwil–Arth-Goldau railway, part of the Zurich to Lucerne line. To the Zurich side of the station, the Zimmerberg Base Tunnel diverges from the original lakeside line, whilst on the Lucerne side is the junction point where the Zurich to Chur and Zurich to Lucerne lines diverge. Thus all trains on both lines must pass through the station.
