The Käferberg Tunnel ((ドイツ語:Käferbergtunnel)) is a railway tunnel in the Swiss city of Zürich. The tunnel runs under the Käferberg hill from the western approaches to Zürich Hauptbahnhof to a portal to the south of Oerlikon station. It is long and carries twin standard gauge () tracks electrified at 11 kV AC 16 2/3 Hz using overhead catenary. Heading south from the southern portal of the tunnel, the railway first crosses the River Limmat and ''Hardturmstrasse'' on a concrete viaduct. Still on viaduct the line splits into two, with the right hand leg being a single-track viaduct that descends into Zürich Altstetten station. The left hand leg, still double track and on viaduct, runs into the upper level of Zürich Hardbrücke station, before continuing its descent into the Hauptbahnhof.〔〔 The tunnel was opened in 1969. As built, only the Altstetten leg of the southern connecting lines existed, and the tunnel was only usable by freight and other trains that bypassed Hauptbahnhof station. In 1982, Hardbrücke station and its leg of the connecting lines opened, allowing the tunnel to be used by trains running between Hauptbahnhof and Oerlikon. Today the tunnel carries Zürich S-Bahn lines S5, S6, S7 and S16, all of which operate via Hardbrücke. It also carries freight traffic, and the hourly direct InterRegio train from Zürich Airport to Basel, both of which run via the Altstetten link. The Käferberg Tunnel is now one of three different routes from Oerlikon to Hauptbahnhof, each of which tunnels through the intermediate ridge and emerge from adjacent portals to the south of Oerlikon station. Like the Käferberg Tunnel, the Wipkingen Tunnel (opened in 1856) connects to the Hauptbahnhof's western approaches, whilst the Weinberg Tunnel (opened in 2014) accesses the Hauptbahnhof's lower level through platforms from the east.〔 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Käferberg Tunnel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
