The Bahnbetriebswerk Hannover is a railway depot (Bw) built in Hannover at the end of the 19th century . The location of the eastern part of the railway system with its listed locomotive sheds is the street curve Stadtstrasse and Bultstrasse in the Hanover district of Bult .

history

precursor

On October 22nd, 1843, the Hanover – Lehrte railway line was opened as the first railway line in Hanover. Initially, there were no separate systems for the vehicles. In 1844 construction began in the north of the station. A rectangular locomotive shed with three tracks was built right next to the station, and a second later. In the north of this, a large rectangular shed was built as a workshop, which was reached via two transfer platforms. Between 1860 and 1868 there was also a round shed with an internal turntable and 15 stalls. The workshop area extended to the street Die Umfuhr (today Rundestraße).

In the course of raising the Hanover main station , it was also necessary to relocate the locomotive treatment systems that were previously located directly at the main station. For the temporary station built to bridge the renovation period, there was a locomotive shed with a turntable between Misburger Damm (today Hans-Böckler-Allee) and Bischofsholer Damm. These were removed again after the new station opened. The workshops were relocated to the west in the village of Leinhausen and became the nucleus of AW Leinhausen .

All facilities north of the old station were demolished after 1875.

Hagenkamp branch

In 1876, to the west of the train station, on Hagenstrasse north of the Hanover – Wunstorf line , the construction of a locomotive shed began. A double semicircular shed with 12 and 19 stands was created. Initially there were two turntables with a diameter of 13.5 meters. At the end of the 19th century they were exchanged for a 16 m and an 18 m turntable. The engine sheds were expanded from 17 m to 24 m in length by 1920. In 1936 the turntables were replaced by a double-jointed turntable with a length of 23 m. Since the shed was at ground level, the tracks leading to the station had a gradient of 10 ‰. In 1885 a water tower was built. Two slagging pits and a coaling system on an embankment, initially with baskets and later with two rotary cranes filled coal hoppers, completed the system. To the west of the engine shed was an administration building, which housed the administration for both parts of the company until it was destroyed in World War II.

The facilities were badly damaged in the Second World War. Only 16 of the 31 stands were covered again. In 1958 the last steam locomotives were withdrawn. In 1960 the Hagenkamp branch was dissolved. The facilities were demolished in the early 1960s. The water tower, which also supplied the main station, remained in operation until 1966. In 1963, the Hanover catenary maintenance office was set up on the site, and there is also a four-track storage facility there.

Stationings

Because of the joint administration, it is no longer possible to say exactly which locomotives were located in Hagenkamp and in the Ostschuppen. At the turn of the century, the S 1 and T 3 were based here, and at times also Prussian G 5.2 . After the east shed was expanded, only passenger and shunting locomotives were located here from 1925. In 1930, 15 locomotives of the 38.10–40 series , five 74.4–13 and 19 89.70–75 locomotives were stationed here. In 1951 it was the 38.10–40, 78 and 91.3–18 series . In 1955 there were ten locomotives each of the 38.10–40 and 91.3–18 classes.

Ostschuppen business unit

Hannover Ostschuppen - Shed 1 (left) and Shed 2 with turntable 2 (January 2014)

At the fork between the railway lines to Lehrte and Göttingen , locomotive treatment systems were built around 1890, initially a 16 m turntable and coaling systems. In 1895 a locomotive shed with six stalls was built, and in 1901 it was expanded by a further six stalls. In 1907 another locomotive shed with eleven stalls and a 20 m turntable was built to the east of it, and was called Shed 2. In 1914 the stands in Shed 1 were lengthened from 21 m to 28 m, in 1927 the turntable of the shed for the standard locomotives was lengthened to 23 m. In 1927/28, Shed 2 and the turntable were extended to the same size. The coaling was located between the separate entrances and exits to the turntable, since 1927/28 with a bridge crane, and later expanded to include bunkers. In 1929 the Ostschuppen got its own locomotive line, after 1945 the entire administration of the depot was housed here.

Most of the facilities were destroyed in October 1945, but were provisionally restored fairly quickly for operational reasons. The first electric locomotives were located here in May 1963, for which Shed 1 was converted, while the steam locomotives remained in Shed 2. In April 1965, however, the electric locomotives were relocated to Hamburg-Eidelstedt and Seelze again, and the Hanover depot remained only operational depot for electric locomotives.

Training towers for height rescue , 2017

On July 1, 1969, the Hanover-Linden depot was incorporated into the Hanover depot, and on October 1, 1969, the Hanover depot, the main freight station in Hainholz. On January 1, 1994 the depot was renamed the Hanover depot .

The locomotive sheds and turntable 2 are no longer used today. In the area of ​​the former locomotive treatment facilities there are sidings and a locomotive filling station.

In 2017, Deutsche Bahn erected training towers for rescue at heights at the historic Ringlokschuppen 2 without the approval of the city of Hanover . The locomotive shed is an individual monument that is entered on the list of cultural assets worthy of protection. According to the Lower Saxony Monument Protection Act, "facilities may not be built ... if this affects the appearance of the monument".

Stationings

From 1902 locomotives of the class S 7 , type de Borries, were stationed here in the Ostschuppen , from 1907 also S 9 , from 1914 S 10.2 .

In 1925 ten class 39 locomotives built by Hanomag came to the Ostschuppen; they were handed in in 1928 when the first locomotives of the 01 arrived. In 1930 there were 17 locomotives, as well as 16 locomotives of the 17.2 series (S 10.2). The latter were in the 1930s by einheitsdampflokomotive the Series 03 replaced. Class 01.10 locomotives also came here from 1940. With around 60 express train locomotives, the Hanover depot was the largest express train depot of the Deutsche Reichsbahn at that time. In 1947 there were 30 class 01 locomotives, five class 01.10, 16 class 03, one class 38.10–40 locomotive, two class 41 locomotives , the 61 001 and nine class 91 locomotives . In 1958/59 even 40 locomotives of the 01 were stationed here, then their number quickly decreased due to the change in traction. In 1965 there were still 18 machines, in 1966 the depot was steam-free.

With electrification came electric locomotives in 1963: in 1964, 20 E 10 , 45 E 40 and seven E 41 were located here. In 1965 they were given up again. Big diesel locomotives came for this. In 1969 there were 20 212 and 18 220 , as well as five 236 , 18 260/261 , two 270 , eight 290 , 32 Köf of different performance groups and four tower cars 701 .
