Zürich Rehalp railway station

Zürich Rehalp railway station (German: Bahnhof Zürich Rehalp) is a railway station and tram stop in the Swiss canton of Zürich, on the boundary between the city of Zürich and the municipality of Zollikon. The station is located on the line of the Forchbahn (FB), which is operated as Zürich S-Bahn service S18. The station is operated by Verkehrsbetriebe Zürich and Forchbahn AG and is the first true railway station on the S18 outbound from its city terminus at Zürich Stadelhofen FB. Between Stadelhofen and a point immediately to the city side of Rehalp station, the S18 operates over the tracks of the Zürich tram network, stopping at selected tram stops. Beyond Rehalp, the service operates on its own dedicated right of way.[1][2][3][4]
