Hourly services operate on both the Albula and Bernina lines. Because these two lines operate with different types and levels of power supply, St Moritz is also a "Power supply switch" station (Systemwechselbahnhof).
The station is located at a height of 1,775 m (5,823 ft) above sea level and is the highest urban railway station in Switzerland.
