Operations

The S9 operates every 30 minutes between Wil and Wattwil, using the Wil–Ebnat-Kappel line. It is the only service over that line between Wil and Lichtensteig.[3]

History

Until the December 2013 timetable change, every other S9 service continued south to Nesslau-Neu St. Johann, providing hourly service to the remainder of the Wil–Ebnat-Kappel line and the short section of the Bodensee–Toggenburg line between Nesslau-Neu St. Johann and Ebnat-Kappel. With the timetable change, the S9 was cut back to its present terminus and the S8 extended to Nesslau-Neu St. Johann.[4][5]
