S14 (ZVV)

The S14 is a regional railway line of the Zürich S-Bahn on the Zürcher Verkehrsverbund (ZVV), Zürich transportation network, in the canton of Zürich, Switzerland. Unlike most of the Zürich S-Bahn lines, it is a radial route.

Route

The line runs from Zürich Hauptbahnhof and heads for Hinwil, the capital of the district of Hinwil in the so-called Zürcher Oberland.

Stations

Rolling stock

Initially, all services were operated by Re 450 class locomotives pushing or pulling double-deck passenger carriages.

However, the line is now mostly operated by RABe 514 class trains. In December 2011, the first of the RABe 511 class trains entered service on the S14.

Scheduling

The train frequency is usually 30 minutes and the trip takes 40 minutes.

Zürcher Verkehrsverbund

The ZVV (German abbreviation for Zürcher Verkehrsverbund, translated into English as Zürich Transport Network or Zürich Traffic Network) is a public transportation fare network system, combining virtually all kind of public transport means (rail, bus, tram, trolleybus, lake boat and cable car and the like) and services in the canton of Zürich (including Rapperswil-Jona and Pfäffikon SZ and some other spots), and integrating them into one single fare network and coordinated timetables. The fares are not based on particular lines and connections from A to B, but on the number of zones ones travels through for a specified period of time.

History and network

Established in May 1990, the ZVV was initially an elaborate web of railway lines. They were prefixed with the letter S (S-Bahn). S-Lines 1 through 43 (with some lines missing) now form part of the S-Bahn Network. A proof-of-payment fare system is in force on all S-Bahn trains; there are no fare gates, but those without a valid ticket face a minimum fine of CHF 100.

Nissan Silvia

The Nissan Silvia is the name given to the company's long-running line of sport coupes based on the Nissan S platform. Although recent models have shared this chassis with other vehicles produced by Nissan (most notably the European 200SX and North American 240SX in the S13 and S14 generations, and 180SX in the Japanese market), the name Silvia is not interchangeable with the chassis codes.

CSP311

The Nissan Silvia CSP311 made its public debut at the Tokyo Motor Show in September 1964 as the "Datsun Coupe 1500". The introductory model was a hand-built coupe based on the Fairlady convertible, styled with input from Count Albrecht Goertz. Its appearance is similar to the Lancia Fulvia coupe. The CSP311 was powered by the 96 hp 1.6 L Nissan R series engine. The engine was equipped with twin SU carburetors. Production ceased in 1968 after a mere 554 were made (mainly in 1965), each one of them unique with body panels crafted by hand. Most of the vehicles remained in Japan; however, 49 examples were exported to Australia and another 10 went to other countries.
