The SchafbergBahn timetable is very flexible, so that the frequency can be increased during peak demand to intervals as little as 20 minutes apart. Needless to say, this keeps waiting times to an absolute minimum.
Nevertheless, if you want to guarantee a specific departure time, you should go ahead and book your ticket online in advance.
