To the north of Wipkingen station, the line enters Wipkingen Tunnel, which emerges on the approach to Oerlikon station.[2]
Prior to the opening of the Weinberg Tunnel on 14 June 2014, this station was served by Zürich S-Bahn lines S2, S8 and S14. These lines all now run via the new tunnel route, and the half-hourly S24 was extended from Zürich Hauptbahnhof station to Zürich Oerlikon station to ensure that Zürich Wipkingen did not lose service.[3]
