Location

Amstetten (Württemberg) station (officially Amstetten (Württ)) is located at line-kilometre 67.0 on the Fils Valley Railway (Filstalbahn) in Amstetten in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. It is at the top of the Geislinger Steige ("Geislingen climb"). The Amstetten–Gerstetten Local Railway (Lokalbahn Amstetten–Gerstetten) and the narrow gauge railway to Oppingen start here. No scheduled passenger services now run on either line. Deutsche Bahn treats the whole station as having three precincts for operational purposes. Amstetten (Württ) Lokalbahnhof ("station of the Local Railway") is operated as a section of the station, while Amstetten (Württ) (Schmalspurbahn) ("narrow gauge railway") is operated as a separate station.

The town that developed around the railway station has over the decades become the largest settlement of the municipality of Amstetten.
