St. Moritz railway station is a railway station in the resort town ofSt. Moritz, in theSwiss canton ofGraubünden. It is the southern terminus of theAlbula Railway line fromChur, and a northern terminus for theBernina Railway line fromTirano inItaly.[1] The station also serves as a terminus for local bus andPostbus services.
Hourly services operate on both the Albula and Bernina lines. Because these two lines operate with different types and levels of power supply, St Moritz is also a "power supply switch" station (Systemwechselbahnhof).
The station is located at a height of 1,775 m (5,823 ft) above sea level and is thehighest urban railway station in Switzerland.
The station came into operation in 1904. At this time St Moritz had already had its own electric tram service,Strassenbahn St. Moritz [de], since 1896 and there were plans to build a branch line to link the tram service to the new station. For financial reasons the short linking branch line was never built, however.
As of the December 2023 timetable change,[update] the following services stop at St. Moritz:[4][5]
