Ambrì-Piotta railway station (Switzerland) |
Ambrì-Piotta is an infrequently served railway station in the Swiss canton of Ticino and municipality of Quinto. It takes its name from the nearby communities of Ambrì and Piotta. The station is on the Swiss Federal Railways Gotthard railway, on the southern ramp up to the Gotthard Tunnel.[1][2][3]
The station is served by a few trains on line S10 of the Treni Regionali Ticino Lombardia (TILO), which operate southbound to Bellinzona, Lugano and Chiasso, and northbound to Airolo. The station is also served by an hourly Autopostale bus service between Bellinzona and Airolo that parallels the railway.[4][5]
