The S12 is a railway service of the St. Gallen S-Bahn that provides half-hourly service between Sargans and Chur over the southern end of the Chur–Rorschach line. THURBO, a joint venture of Swiss Federal Railways and the canton of Thurgau, operates the service.

The S12 operates every 30 minutes between Sargans and Chur, using the southern end of the Chur–Rorschach line. In Sargans, an hourly connection is made with the S4, which operates in a circular fashion west over the Ziegelbrücke–Sargans line and north up the Chur–Rorschach line. The S12 is supplemented by various long-distance trains.[3]
