history

After the Basel - Schopfheim line of the "Wiesentalbahn-Gesellschaft" was opened as a private railway from the Badischer Bahnhof in Basel in 1862, this line was continued on June 5, 1876 by the " Schopfheim-Zeller Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft " to Zell.

On September 25, 1966 the passenger traffic and on September 24, 1967 the goods traffic on the 19 km long narrow-gauge railway from Zell (Wiesental) to Todtnau was stopped. A short time later, the tracks were completely dismantled.

The Basel – Zell line, and with it the Zell train station, had been electrified since 1913. After the introduction of push-pull trains, whose locomotives no longer had to move, in 1979 the overhead line in the station was dismantled down to the platform track, and freight traffic was handled with diesel locomotives.

On June 15, 2003, the traffic on the Basel – Zell line was taken over by SBB GmbH , the German passenger transport subsidiary of the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB), and integrated into the network of today's trinational Basel S-Bahn . At the same time, the Zell train station was downgraded from the train station to a stopping point. Only the S5 and S6 S-Bahn lines still operate.

The track ends at a buffer stop at the end of the platform . Parking spaces were created in the area of ​​the former loading and staging tracks. There are two bus stops directly in front of the platform and next to the reception building, from where buses run to the surrounding communities, including along the former railway line to Todtnau .
