Uster Location within Switzerland

Uster is a railway station in Switzerland, situated in the city of Uster. The station is located on the Wallisellen to Uster and Rapperswil railway line and served by Zurich S-Bahn lines S5, S9, S14 and S15.

Between 1909 and 1949, Uster station was also the terminus of the Uster-Oetwil-Bahn (UOeB), a metre gauge electric tramway that linked Uster with Esslingen and Oetwil in the Zürcher Oberland.

An unusual feature of Uster railway station is the historic lok remise or engine shed. This comprises two separate buildings, a simple shed from 1856 and a partial roundhouse from 1857, arranged around a turntable. The roundhouse is flanked by houses on either side.

The whole ensemble has been designated as a historical monument since 1985, and has been restored to its original condition. It is inscribed on the Swiss Inventory of Cultural Property of National Significance. It is owned by the Canton of Zurich, and used by the Dampfbahn-Verein Zürcher Oberland to maintain its collection of historic rolling stock.
