The station is located in the Oberrathen quarter of the village on the south bank on the Elbe on the Dresden to Děčín railway line. It is linked to the Niederrathen quarter on the other bank of the river by the Rathen Ferry, a passenger-only reaction ferry.[1] [2] [3]

The station is served by the Dresden S-Bahn S1 service. Trains run to Pirna, Dresden and Meißen in one direction, and to Bad Schandau and Schöna in the other direction. The service provides two trains per hour in both directions for most of each day.[4]
