Location
Airolo railway station (Switzerland)

Airolo is a railway station in the Swiss canton of Ticino and municipality of Airolo. The station is on the Swiss Federal Railways Gotthard railway, at the southern entrance to the Gotthard Tunnel.

The station is served by an hourly InterRegio train between Arth-Goldau and Locarno, most of which start from either Basel SBB or Zürich HB. A small number of trains on line S10 of the Treni Regionali Ticino Lombardia (TILO) are also extended to operate between Airolo and Chiasso.

The station has three platform tracks, served by a side platform and an island platform, connected by a pedestrian subway. The station building, on the side platform, includes a kiosk and a ticket office, but is largely given over to a manufacturer of local yogurts. Just outside the station entrance is a memorial to the lives lost during the construction of the Gotthard Tunnel.

Bus services operated by Autopostale terminate in front of the station, and include an hourly service to Bellinzona that parallels the railway, together with a less frequent route across the Novena Pass to Oberwald.
