A ferry station is a train station on a river, sea or sea coast that is directly adjacent to a ferry port , so that railway vehicles can immediately drive onto railway ferries and be transferred.

The advantage of these routes is that travelers do not have to change trains and goods do not have to be reloaded (or “transshipped”).

The largest German ferry station is the Sassnitz ferry port on Rügen . In addition to RoRo ship loading, this also offers the possibility of moving railway wagons from standard gauge to the broad gauge used in Finland, Russia and the Baltic countries .

One of the most famous German ferry stations is the Puttgarden ferry station .
