>>2026935>makes me kek that this iconic German train is used within SwitzerlandMost train lines in Schaffhausen are actually German. There's the two swiss lines from Zurich and Winterthur which have the short stretch up to the city of Schaffhausen, everything else os part of the Hochrheinbahn (upper Rhine railway) which runs along the Rhine on its northern side. To the east it goes to Konstanz via Singen, to the west to Basel via Waldshut. The fastest way to travel from Schaffhausen to Basel is on a German train running mostly through Germany. For that reason, back in the day those classic German rail buses where in use in Schaffhausen on the German lines. Pic related is in Neuhausen on the line from Schaffhausen to Erzingen (Schaffhausen-Basel mainline). The line from Schaffhausen to Thayngen is part of the line to Singen and Konstanz. On it run both the Schaffhausen-Singen S-Bahn suburban trains (two per hour), as well as the swiss-operated trains that only reach Thayngen (was one per hour, now it'll be two).
The only rail line that was ever properly from Schaffhausen was the Schaffhausen-Schleitheim interurban tram which was closed in 1964. It makes me incredibly sad that we lost that rail line.
