Allersberg (Rothsee) is a regional train station on the 25.4 kilometer of the new Nuremberg – Ingolstadt line . On working days (outside of school holidays) around 1,500 people entering and leaving the school were counted per day.

The station is located on the grounds of the Altenfelden district, about 3 km west of the Middle Franconian town of Allersberg , right next to the A 9 . Along with the Kinding (Altmühltal) (km 58.6) and Ingolstadt Nord (km 86.8) stations, it is one of three regional stations on the new line. Alongside the Kinding (Altmühltal) station in the south and the Limburg Süd and Montabaur stations ( high-speed line Cologne – Rhein / Main ), the station is one of four German passenger stations that can be driven through at 300 km / h as planned.

The new station was opened on December 6, 2006 with a ceremony. 33 years after the closure of the Burgthann – Allersberg railway line , the municipality now has a railway connection again.

The station is listed in the operating point directory under the abbreviation NALB and is classified in station category 6 of the Deutsche Bahn. The station is administered by the Nuremberg station management.

Timetable concept

Since the timetable change on December 10, 2006, the station has been served by regional trains. Until then, only ICE trains ran on the route that ran through Allersberg.

In Allersberg, the 200 km / h regional express trains of the Munich-Nuremberg Express between Nuremberg and Ingolstadt , or Munich , stop every two hours, sometimes every hour on weekends. In addition, a 140 km / h regional train runs between Allersberg and Nuremberg as the Allersberg Express during rush hour .

The travel time to Nuremberg is around 15 minutes and to Munich around 90 minutes.

Infrastructure

The station built on the embankment has two continuous central tracks, which can be driven at 300 km / h and are designed in slab track with UIC-60 rails . It is not necessary to reduce the speed to pass through. Stopping trains travel at a maximum of 100 km / h over switches (form: UIC60-1200-1: 18.5 fb) to the platform tracks of the two 170 meter long outer platforms . These are designed in a conventional ballast superstructure with rail profile S54 and can also be used as overtaking tracks. To the north of the station (center at km 24.7), a track changeover with four switches (form UIC60-2500-1: 28.5 fb) is installed, which branch off at 130 km / h.

Safety switches (form ABW 54-190-1: 9) are arranged on both platform tracks at the transition to the continuous main tracks.

The Munich-Nuremberg Express trains go south (Ingolstadt / Munich) from platform 4, north (Nuremberg) from platform 1. The Allersberg Express trains always run from platform 1. On platform 4 there is a shelter ( weather protection system ) with seven seats available, two such shelters were set up on platform 1. A ticket machine, several validators for VGN tickets and a station clock were installed on both platforms . The passenger information is performed exclusively by means of loudspeakers.

A street underpass with a sidewalk and a pedestrian underpass pass under the station in the area of ​​the platforms. Both platforms are accessible via two stairs and a ramp, a guide system for the blind leads to the platform and along the edge of the platform.

A reception building or an enclosed waiting room does not exist.

The only building on the site houses an electronic signal box (ESTW-A) on the route. A GSM-R transmission mast was also installed in the area of ​​the station. Rain retention basins were created in the area of ​​the parking lot . Earth walls on which noise barriers were erected run between the motorway and the train station . South of the entry points (route km 26.1), the lanes of the Allersberg motorway junction cross the route on a bridge.

In the station area, the continuous main tracks are at a center-to-center distance of 4.50 m, the two platform tracks are at a distance of 6.30 m.

Transport links

The station is located in the immediate vicinity of the Allersberg motorway junction on the A 9. Six bus parking spaces and 112 covered bicycle parking spaces have been built at the train station. A stop to get off the bus was shown directly at the pedestrian underpass.

The station car park is divided into four sections with a total of around 286 parking spaces (including 12 disabled parking spaces) and has an electronic parking guidance system that was decommissioned in 2015. There are 112 parking spaces available for bicycles. A cycle path connects the train station with the Rothsee recreation area , which is quickly accessible to residents of the city of Nuremberg.

The bus network in the district of Roth was fundamentally changed for the commissioning of the station. The station was initially served by seven bus routes. Several bus lines to the train station were also extended. In addition to the direct connection to the village of Allersberg, Thalmässing , Greding , Heideck , Pyrbaum and Freystadt were served , and two lines lead to the next larger cities of Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz and Roth . Since the station was commissioned, the line from Nuremberg did not end in Schwand , but continued to Altenfelden.

After passenger expectations were not met, the offer was thinned out in December 2010. Among other things, bus route 651, which previously connected Nuremberg with Allersberg train station, was shortened to Schwand. Bus lines 505 and 516 were combined to form line 508 (Allersberg – Neumarkt), which was only served on weekends between Allersberg bus station and Neumarkt after prior notification.

The 633 bus connects Heideck , Hilpoltstein and Allersberg to the train station. The operating deficit is around 65,000 euros per year (as of 2013). In a passenger count in summer 2013, an average of eight passengers were counted.

history

background

Allersberg had a railway connection via the Burgthann – Allersberg railway until the end of May 1973.

Due to fewer settlement areas, a route west of the motorway was favored in the regional planning procedure for the new route.

Around 2005 two-thirds of the Allersberg population were out-commuters, two-thirds of them drove to Nuremberg.

Realization discussion

The expansion of the Allersberg and Kinding overtaking stations into regional stations was already provided as an option in the regional planning documents for the route. In the course of the regional planning procedure in 1989, the Allersberg Market Council spoke out against the new line. On October 26, 1987, the district council of the district of Roth also rejected the route in both variants discussed at the time (Augsburg and Ingolstadt). With 50 to one vote, the district council rejected both route options again on October 30, 1989.

In an expert report by the Deutsche Bundesbahn in the 1980s, the establishment of a regional train stop in Allersberg and Kinding was considered. In a discussion following a project presentation to the market council, the head of the Bundesbahn project group, Peter Nussberger, came up with the idea of ​​a "stopping point" in October 1987. The council then rejected the construction of an ICE line in the municipality with 19 to 2 votes. With 16 to 5 votes, the council decided to consider changing its position if a regional train stop were to be guaranteed.

An overtaking station in the area of Göggelsbuch was planned until around the beginning of 1989 and was then moved to Altenfelden. In March 1989 these considerations had not yet been made concrete.

In 1990 an overtaking station was planned at Altenfelden (route kilometers 25.5). In addition to two passing tracks with a usable length of at least 600 m, two sidings were planned. In the regional planning assessment of the route presented on June 20, 1991, the Bavarian Ministry of the Environment made the German Federal Railroad a requirement, among other things, to develop the Allersberg and Kinding overtaking stations into regional stations.

A land consolidation in Allersberg that began in 1981 and was to be completed in 1992 was considered endangered when the decision to opt for the Ingolstadt variant was announced in mid-1990. In autumn 1992, due to the pending new route planning, a division of the land consolidation process was considered. Several construction projects in Altenfelden, u. a. the relocation of a sewage treatment plant and a construction area were on hold.

At the beginning of 1992, a non-staffed regional station with 200 parking spaces was planned. The signal box should be remote-controlled from Nuremberg or Fischbach. According to the Bundesbahn, the planning approval procedure was to be initiated before the 1992 summer vacation; construction was expected to start in 1993. The construction time should be six years. The realization was open at this point; Economic feasibility surveys were carried out. The Deutsche Bundesbahn rejected a siding requested by the local council for a possible industrial park. After the plan approval documents available at the beginning of 1993 did not contain any specific and final statements about a regional train station near Altenfelden, the Allersberg market council again rejected the new line.

According to the planning status of August 1993, an overtaking station was planned at Allersberg, each with a laterally correct overtaking track. The systems for a regional train station were taken into account. The effects of regional train stations in Allersberg and Kinding was the subject of an information event at the government of Middle Franconia in mid-1993. Deputies and mayors from the Roth district campaigned for the train stations. Representatives of the Federal Railways and the government had agreed to the construction of the Allersberg passenger station, the financing of the platforms, development and operating costs was still open. It was planned u. a. a parking lot with 300 parking spaces and an option to expand by a further 190 spaces. The 300 parking spaces should last until the year 2000. An hourly service with 16 train pairs per day was planned.

Even after the planning status from mid-1994, the station was designed as an overtaking station . An expansion to a regional train station was still an option. In the north and south head, track changes between the main tracks with four points each were planned.

Markt Allersberg brought an action against the first planning approval decision for the line (Nuremberg-Fischbach / Feucht) in order to reach a third track to secure regional traffic. Due to the high utilization of the ICE long-distance route, there is no capacity for regional traffic. The market applied for legal protection at the Bavarian Municipal Association. In a statement, the latter gave the action little chance, as the market town was not directly affected by the planning approval decision and therefore did not grant any legal protection. With a unanimous decision of the market council, Allersberg then withdrew the action.

At a regional conference at the end of June 1995, Bavaria's Minister of Economic and Social Affairs Otto Wiesheu again emphasized that the Free State would order both train stations from DB and that it would have to finance the infrastructure. A final decision should be made in October. Shortly afterwards, the mayors of 13 communities in the catchment area of ​​the route criticized the lack of clear statements.

planning

In April 1998 the Free State of Bavaria ordered the expansion of the overtaking station into a regional station. Two 170 m long outer platforms were planned. According to the planning status of 1999, track changes with four points each were planned in both station heads.

The structure was part of the planning approval section 31 of the new line and part of the construction lot north.

construction

The station during the construction phase in 2003

An earth dump was created northwest of the facility.

The station was part of the north construction lot of the new line, which was commissioned by a consortium of the companies Bilfinger and Berger ( Mannheim ) and Max Bögl ( Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz ).

Around 2003 the district of Roth and the Bavarian Railway Company requested that the section between Allersberg and Nuremberg be put into operation for regional traffic early, by 2005 at the latest.

On November 27, 2005 the station was driven through electrically for the first time.

business

Since the timetable change on December 10, 2006, the station has been served by regional trains. Until then, only ICE trains ran on the route that ran through Allersberg.

When it went into operation, the scheduled travel time from the Allersberg market square to Nuremberg main station fell from 46 to 24 minutes.

After a year of operation, DB Regio drew a satisfactory balance at the beginning of December 2007. There were 350 passengers at the station every day. The demand was mainly focused on morning and evening commuter trains.

When the timetable changed in December 2013, the train service to Nuremberg was reduced from 25 to 18 trains, the service from Nuremberg from 26 to 18.

According to information from the Bavarian Railway Company, a passenger count on an average working day (Monday to Friday, outside of school holidays) in 2014 counted 1,500 people entering and leaving the station.

From 2018, Allersberg was to be the end point of the new S5 line of the Nuremberg S-Bahn , which would then be operated by the National Express Group with Škoda 7Ev vehicles. DB Regio Bayern was awarded the contract on January 4, 2017. New Coradia Continental vehicles from Alstom are now to be used on the S5 . The change is pending due to delays.

With the timetable change in December 2018, the bus service to Hilpoltstein and Allersberg was also changed. More journeys are now being offered, partly as collective call taxis.

In the third expert draft of the Deutschland-Takts , an hourly regional service and an hourly S-Bahn service are provided for the station. Four and a half long-distance trains are to pass through each hour and direction.

Costs and financing

In 1992 the Deutsche Bundesbahn put the cost of a regional train station at DM 15 million. This included 200 parking spaces, handicapped access and a driveway from State Road 2225. Additional costs of 800,000 DM are required for pressure-tight wagons.

The station was financed outside of the financing agreement for the project concluded in December 1996 between the Federal Ministry of Transport and Deutsche Bahn. The station was part of a € 306 million package with financial contributions from third parties, to which, in addition to the three regional stations on the route, the costs for the S-Bahn expansion between Munich-Obermenzing and Dachau, the removal of 14 level crossings between Ingolstadt and Munich were included. The cost of the station is not publicly known.
