Bassersdorf Railway Station
The original route of the railway was through the centre of Bassersdorf. But with the construction of a new railway to serve Zürich Airport in 1980, this route was abandoned along with the original Bassersdorf railway station from 1877, built by Schweizerische Nationalbahn. A new station was constructed on the new line, some 500 m (1,600 ft) to the south of the original station.
Layout
Bassersdorf railway station is located on Bahnhofstrasse, 500 metres (1,600 ft) south of the town center. The station consists of a side platform serving track 1 and an island platform for tracks 2 and 3; only the latter is used in scheduled service. A fourth track is not served by a platform. A small station building lies north of the platforms, along with a bus stop and car park. A pedestrian tunnel connects these facilities with the island platform and with Pöschenstrasse on the south side of the tracks.
