Layout
Arth-Goldau is a keilbahnhof: a station located between two converging railway lines. The north-south Zug–Arth-Goldau line joins the main line of the east-west Gotthard line. Both lines have two platforms serving three tracks. Additionally, the Arth–Rigi line terminates in its own platforms above and at right angles to the Gotthard platforms. == Statue at Arth-Goldau Train Station ==

A new public art installation featuring 15 life-sized sculptures has been unveiled at Arth-Goldau train station, launched on September 1, 2025, as part of the "Nächster Halt" (Next Stop) project. This initiative celebrates two major anniversaries: 150 years of the Arth-Rigi-Bahn and 100 years of the Natur- und Tierpark Goldau. The sculptures, created by local artist Bernhard "Beni" Annen, include a mix of historical and symbolic figures such as: • A historical Rigi-Bahn conductor • Two Schwinger (Swiss wrestlers) • A hiker • Two litter bearers with a sedan chair • A bear from the nearby wildlife park • A fish otter bathing in a fountain • A fox rummaging through a trash can • A bearded vulture These bronze-painted, steel-framed figures are integrated into the station environment, interacting with infrastructure and passengers, adding a playful and cultural dimension to the travel experience. == Services ==
