Summary[edit]

Description Bilten was connected to the Nordostbahn railway network in 1875. The old train station was demolished in 2011 and today's facilities were built. But there are no buildings except the signal box, just two new shelters. In terms of signal box technology (Thales Elektra2), Bilten is considered a train station. The central platform has existed since 1950. The first shelter on the platform (left) was built a short time later. But we live in fast moving times and train stations are no longer built to last a hundred years. Bilten station will be closed no later than 2027, only 15 years since the renovation. Maybe already earlier, and dismantled. The reason for this is a new passing track in Siebnen that is being built on this main line of Zurich-Chur. Already today only a few trains stop here. They were replaced by buses.
