Rätia (train)

Rätia is a EuroCity train service that links Hamburg in Germany with Chur in Switzerland via Dortmund, Cologne, Mannheim, Basel and Zurich, following the river Rhine for a significant part of its journey. The service is named after Rhaetia, the Roman province that the city of Chur was in. Over the years, the name Rätia has been given to a number EC services between Chur and various parts in Germany, although the current services - EC 6/7 - lost their name in 2004.

Route

From the north, the service starts at Hamburg-Altona, and runs over the Altona link line through to Dammtor and Hamburg Hauptbahnhof. From Hamburg it heads south along the Rollbahn, taking in Bremen Hauptbahnhof, Osnabrück Hauptbahnhof and Münster, and continues on to Dortmund. From Dortmund the service heads west towards Essen and Duisburg, where it first gets close to the Rhine. It follows the river south through Düsseldorf, before crossing it (east-to-west) via the Hohenzollern Bridge, just before Cologne Hauptbahnhof.
