=== Rail === {{Main|Rail transport in Liechtenstein}} The single railway line in Liechtenstein is the [[Feldkirch–Buchs railway]], of which {{convert|9.5|km|mi|frac=4|abbr=on}} are located within the principality. This line connects [[Feldkirch, Vorarlberg|Feldkirch]] in [[Vorarlberg]] (Austria) with [[Buchs, St. Gallen|Buchs]] in the [[canton of St. Gallen]] (Switzerland). There are four railway stations in Liechtenstein, namely {{rws|Schaan-Vaduz}}, {{rws|Forst Hilti}}, {{rws|Nendeln}} and {{rws|Schaanwald}} (from west to east). With the exception of Schaanwald, which was closed in 2013, these stations are served by a [[regional train]], the {{ric|Vorarlberg S-Bahn|2}} of [[Vorarlberg S-Bahn]], which runs between {{rws|Feldkirch}} and {{rws|Buchs SG}} on working days only. The service is operated by [[Austrian Federal Railways]] (ÖBB).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Railways in Liechtenstein |url=https://www.sinfin.net/railways/world/liecht.html |access-date=2023-09-27 |website=www.sinfin.net}}</ref> Plans to upgrade the line and increase rail traffic were halted by a referendum in 2020.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Morgan |first=Sam |date=2020-09-02 |title=Liechtensteiners say 'nein' to new railway |url=https://www.euractiv.com/section/railways/news/liechtensteiners-say-nein-to-new-railway/ |access-date=2023-09-27 |website=www.euractiv.com |language=en-GB}}</ref> Liechtenstein is nominally within the ''Ostwind'' [[transit district]], which also includes northeastern Switzerland.<ref>{{cite web |title=Ostwind zone maps |url=https://www.ostwind.ch/en/about/services/zone-maps/ |access-date=2024-10-05 | lang=en}}</ref> [[Railjet]] and [[Transalpin|EuroCity]] long-distance trains do not call at stations in Liechtenstein.
