Schaan-Vaduz is one of the four train stations serving Liechtenstein, located in the town of Schaan, 3.5 km (2.2 mi) from Vaduz. It is owned by the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB). The station is served by 22 trains per day, 11 in each direction between Switzerland and Austria.

The station is owned and operated by Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB).

Overview

Schaan-Vaduz is situated on the international and electrified Feldkirch-Buchs line, between the station of Buchs SG (in Switzerland) and the stop of Forst Hilti (in the northern suburb of Schaan). It is served only by regional trains.
