The Ebertsheim station - temporarily Ebertsheim West - is the breakpoint of the Rhineland-Palatinate local church Ebertsheim . It belongs to the station category 7 of the Deutsche Bahn AG (DB) and has a platform track . The station is in the network area of ​​the Rhein-Neckar transport association (VRN) and belongs to tariff zones 52 and 61. Its address is Bahnhofstrasse 21 .

The station was opened on June 24, 1876 as a through station for the Eistalbahn . Due to the opening of the Ebertsheim – Hettenleidelheim railway line and the associated commissioning of another on-site station, it was used exclusively as a freight station at times. Passenger traffic came to a standstill in 1976 and was reactivated in 1994. Freight traffic came to a standstill in the meantime. The station building is a listed building.

location

The stop is on the southern outskirts of Ebertsheim. The Eistalbahn runs in this area from east-northeast to west-southwest. To the east of the train station, it bridges the local Bahnhofstrasse .

history

On August 7, 1864, the "Eistal Committee" was founded , which was headed by the Palatinate industrialist Carl von Gienanth . It tried to get a concession for a railway line that should branch off the Neustadt – Monsheim line opened between 1865 and 1873 in Grünstadt , along the Eisbach Eisenberg and from there either to Dreisen or via Alsenborn to Enkenbach. A corresponding request was sent to the Bavarian Ministry of Commerce on November 14, 1865. The rejection followed just two weeks later. The plans were not finalized until the late 1860s. However, the location of the train station in Ebertsheim was initially unclear before the shelling fell to lay it on the southern outskirts. On January 30, 1874, the Bavarian government finally gave the green light for the construction of the route in the form of a concession. The detailed project was released on August 29th. The route should run on the southern slope of the valley, whereby a later continuation beyond Eisenberg was taken into account accordingly.

For the clay pits of Hettenleidelheim , a route branching off from the Eistalbahn was opened in 1894 . 600 meters east of the Ebertsheim train station, a specially constructed branching station was built for this purpose . After the route was opened for passenger traffic, this new station also served passenger trains, while the previous one was solely responsible for freight traffic. At the beginning of the 20th century, the station was administered by the Neustadt Operations and Building Inspectorate and belonged to the Grünstadt railway maintenance department . In 1922 the station was incorporated into the newly established Ludwigshafen Reich Railway Directorate . A year later employed at the station railway workers were the carried out in the course of France, to 1924 permanent director operation reported. Then they returned.

In the meantime, the station was reactivated under the name Ebertsheim West , before it was renamed again in 1932 to a pure freight station. In the course of the dissolution of the Ludwigshafen management, he changed to the area of ​​responsibility of the Mainz management on April 1, 1937; at that time he was subordinate to the works office (RBA) Neustadt.

After the cessation of passenger traffic on the line to Hettenleidelheim on October 3, 1954, the station was reactivated for passenger traffic, as the branch station was henceforth a pure depot. Passenger transport on the Eistalbahn ended on May 30, 1976. In the period that followed, freight services ended. On May 26, 1994, passenger traffic between Grünstadt and Eisenberg was finally reactivated.

Reception building

The station building is a type construction of the Palatinate Railways from 1876. It contains elements from late classicism and neo-renaissance .

traffic

passenger traffic

Because passenger transport played a rather subordinate role, combined passenger and freight trains often ran in the first few decades. After the station had meanwhile been reactivated as Ebertsheim West for passenger traffic, since the extension of the line to Enkenbach it again served exclusively for freight traffic. Only when passenger traffic to Hettenleidelheim was discontinued did passenger trains stop at him again. Since the reactivation in 1994, the trains of the Eistalbahn have been going beyond Grünstadt and use the Palatinate Northern Railway to Freinsheim and then the Freinsheim – Frankenthal railway .

Freight transport

At the beginning of the 20th century, three freight trains a day ran through the station from Grünstadt to Eisenberg; one drove on the Ludwigshafen – Grünstadt – Eisenberg – Hettenleidelheim route, another exclusively between Grünstadt and Eisenberg, and a third also operated the Grünstadt – Altleiningen railway . After the line was extended to Enkenbach in 1932, local freight trains ran from the Einsiedlerhof marshalling yard to the Eistal. From the 1980s, transfer trains operated the station, which at that time was no longer an independent freight tariff point. It was operated from the Grünstadt train station , which it served as a satellite. In the meantime, however, freight traffic has come to a standstill, and the station was then dismantled to the stop.
