Lokomotivdepot F, Locomotive depot in Aussersihl, Zurich, Switzerland

Lokomotivdepot F is a listed locomotive depot in Zurich's Aussersihl district, built in 1898/99 to plans by NOB architect Vital Kirchen. Its rectangular hall spans seven tracks under eight corrugated-iron gabled roofs carried by cast-iron columns and light trusses. Red brick walls with yellow plastered infill and granite window surrounds enclose the hall, and a two-storey service wing with 24 window axes runs along the south side.

The depot was built between 1898 and 1899 by the Swiss Northeastern Railway, which initially operated it. Later, the Swiss Federal Railways took over the facility and used it as a key maintenance station.

The red brick walls and cast iron supports reflect how Switzerland built industrial structures in the late 1800s, representing modern engineering and technical progress of that era. This style of construction became a signature of the country's industrial identity.

Access to the site is restricted since the depot remains in active operation, requiring prior permission to visit. Interested parties should contact the relevant authorities to explore visiting possibilities.

The facility was completely renovated in 2017 and 2018 while remaining fully operational, a remarkable logistical achievement. The track hall roof was replaced and all infrastructure modernized without interrupting daily railway operations.
