The Upper Rhine Railway has yet to be electrified and most services are operated by diesel locomotives or railcars, although electrification has been agreed upon and is planned.[4][5] The line from Switzerland is electrified using the Swiss standard of 15 kV and 16.7 Hz from an overhead line. Only one terminal platform's track in the station is electrified, and this is used by all trains from Switzerland.
CustomsEdit
Passengers using Platform 5 which serves trains running to and from Switzerland are subject to customs formalities from both countries as the train line lies on a customs border. Checks may occur in Waldshut station by German customs officers as well as on the train by Swiss customs officials. Checks by the Swiss may also take place in the first Swiss station, namely Koblenz. Systematic passport controls were abolished when Switzerland joined the Schengen Area in 2008.[6][7]
Train servicesEdit
The station is a border station and as such is in local transport tariff zones in both Germany and Switzerland.
