history
With its train station, which went into operation in 1869, Armsheim forms an important hub in Rheinhessen . This is where the two railway lines Alzey - Mainz and the Rheinhessenbahn from Bingen am Rhein to Worms cross . There used to be a branch from here to the Wiesbachtalbahn in the direction of Wendelsheim via Flonheim , but this was given up for passenger traffic as early as 1966. At weekends and on public holidays from May to October, trips with the Elsass Express from Mainz to Wissembourg are possible. The reception building is a three-storey late classicist type building from the time it was founded. It is a cultural monument according to the Rhineland-Palatinate Monument Protection Act .
After the Bundesbahn was organized under private law in 1994 in the form of Deutsche Bahn , the company apartments were sold and rented. Due to the fact that the agricultural goods are no longer transported by rail, the loading route was shut down. The site was completely renewed from 2009 in cooperation with the municipality, the association, the state of Rhineland-Palatinate and the DB AG, including new park + ride parking spaces. The station's three mechanical signal boxes were replaced by an electronic one in 2007 .
In 2015 the rear part of the former loading lane of Deutsche Bahn AG at Armsheim station was put up for sale.
Tracks and platforms
The station has three tracks and platforms. Normally the track occupancy is as follows:
- All trains going south stop on platform 1: Alzey, Worms and, since December 2014, Kirchheimbolanden too. A Deutsche Bahn ticket machine is located here .
- Only trains traveling in the direction of Bingen (Rhein) Stadt ( Worms – Bingen Stadt railway line ) stop on platform 2 .
- Only trains traveling in the direction of Mainz ( Alzey – Mainz line ) stop at platform 3 .
A Vlexx ticket machine is located on the platform for tracks 2 and 3, level with the station building and the ticket machine on the platform for track 1 .
Planned adventure museum
Since spring, the “Altes Stellwerk Armsheim Nord” development association has wanted to set up an adventure museum in the signal box building to show how a mechanical signal box worked and is collecting donations through crowdfunding for this purpose .
