Lake Zürich left-bank railway
The left-bank railway opened in 1875 and forms part of the Zürich–Chur main line. It is long, standard gauge, double track and electrified at supplied by overhead line. Between Zürich and Thalwil, the line originally shared its tracks with the Zürich–Lucerne main line, although many through trains on this stretch now use the Zimmerberg Base Tunnel rather than the lakeside line.
