Oberwinterthur railway station (German: Bahnhof Oberwinterthur) is a railway station that serves Oberwinterthur, which is district number 2 in Winterthur, a city in the Canton of Zurich, Switzerland.[1][2]
Opened in 1855, the station is of simple design, and is owned and operated by the Swiss Federal Railways. It is served by four Zürich S-Bahn lines. As the terminus of three regional bus lines, it is also a transfer station for commuters.
North of the station, in Hegmatten, is the Zugunterhaltungsanlage Oberwinterthur. There, the double-decker Zürich S-Bahn trains, and the Stadler Flirt und GTW multiple unit trains, are maintained. A vehicle maintenance facility for other users is planned.[3]
