Train Stations at Chur Switzerland


I will be reaching Chur Switzerland by Glacier Express on 16 Sept 2025 and want to go to Munich by train the same day. I would like to know where would I board the Munich train 2224 Alpenrhein operated by SOB from?

The same train station or different train station?

If different train station then name of the station and how do I travel to this station?

Changing in St. Margrethen makes usually sense (faster than going via Zürich), therefore also the use of “Alpenrhein Express” till there.

But actually not in that period. Unfortunately this year there are several periods when EC doesnt stop in St Margrethen. I recommend to check the timetable on sbb.ch

Both the Glacier express and the regular trains serve the same main station of Chur. Transfers are fairly straightforward.

From Chur there are no direct trains to Munich though. You'll probably need to switch trains in Zürich

Thanks ​@Schelte and @runner.on.rolls. I have checked the time table on EURAIL website and found the connecting trains at St. Margrethen (Euro City EC193  etc.) on 16 September when I am planning to travel.
