The Ahrensfelde station is a regional and S-Bahn station in Marzahn-Nord , the northern part of the Berlin district of Marzahn in the Marzahn-Hellersdorf district . It is located directly on the border with the Brandenburg community of the same name Ahrensfelde .
Location and structure
Contrary to the name, the station was never in the Ahrensfeld area. Initially, the station area belonged to the Falkenberg estate , which became part of the Weißensee district with the Greater Berlin Act from 1920 . In 1979 the border was shifted with the new formation of the Marzahn district , and in 2001 Marzahn finally merged into the Marzahn-Hellersdorf district.
Operationally, the station is made up of two independent train stations . The Ahrensfelde train station (hereinafter referred to as the long-distance train station ) is used for regional traffic, the Ahrensfelde (S-Bahn) train station (hereinafter referred to as the S-Bahn station ) is the neighboring station of the Berlin S-Bahn to the east. The operating points are located on the Wriezener Bahn , which includes three local routes according to the directory of locally permissible speeds (VzG). These are the VzG routes 6072 ( Berlin-Lichtenberg - Ahrensfelde) and 6528 (Ahrensfelde - Wriezen ) on the long-distance railway and the VzG route 6011 ( Berlin-Friedrichsfelde Ost - Ahrensfelde S-Bahn) on the S-Bahn. In the operating point directory , the station is listed as BAHR for the long-distance railway section and BAF for the S-Bahn section. The station has three platform edges, a side platform for the S-Bahn (track 161) and a common center platform for regional and S-Bahn (tracks 162 and 44).
The long-distance train station is limited by the entry signals 61 (km 12.647) from the direction of Berlin-Lichtenberg and 90 (km 13.990) from the direction of Wriezen. The station has five main tracks , of which track 26 is the continuous main track. All main tracks are equipped with exit signals in both directions. Track 24 on which the platform is located is subdivided again by the intermediate signals 75 and 76 in front of switch 14. Two other side tracks (tracks 29 and 30) are no longer available. The S-Bahn station is bounded by the entry signals 1039 ( regular track ; km 13.561) and 1037 ( opposite track ; km 13.482). The continuous main tracks to the platforms are tracks 161 and 162, on them are the exit signals 1042 and 1044. You can switch between the two tracks via a track trapezoid. The siding 23 is located in the exit direction west of the continuous main tracks. Vehicles can be moved between the two stations via the turnout connection 13-14.
The station building, which was opened in 1898, is located on a side branch of Ahrensfelder Chaussee to the west of the tracks. The ensemble of reception building and various outbuildings from the time is a listed building . The station building from 1982 is north of the S-Bahn tracks. In the northern exit section there is a level crossing where the Ahrensfelder Chaussee crosses the long-distance railway line.
The signaling equipment is operated and monitored from the Ahr signal box. The building, which went into operation around 1982, is a GS II 64b relay interlocking. It replaced an older mechanical signal box from the opening period.
history
With the opening of the section from Lichtenberg-Friedrichsfelde to Werneuchen on May 1, 1898, the Ahrensfelde stop went into operation. However, no vehicles were processed. At the beginning it had two main tracks with raised platforms . In 1905 a goods shed, an open loading track connected on both sides and a loading ramp for top and side loading were added. The reception building comprised a service room, two waiting rooms , toilets and tool shed. It was equipped with entry and exit signals at a later point in time.
The redesign of the railway systems in the Berlin area in the course of the " Germania " planning envisaged the electrification of the Wriezener Bahn to Werneuchen by 1950. From Berlin-Marzahn , the S-Bahn and the other trains should use the double-track route in joint traffic. A central platform for passenger traffic and a small freight station at the southern entrance were planned for the Ahrensfelde train station . From May 15, 1938, the Berlin suburban tariff applied on the route, but the construction project was not implemented.
During the Second World War , the route was spared from fighting for a long time. Railway traffic could probably be maintained until mid-April 1945. When the German troops withdrew from Wriezen , the superstructure was destroyed on several sections, including between the motorway bridge at Blumberg and Ahrensfelde, using a track grinder. The first trains between Berlin-Lichtenberg, Ahrensfelde and Werneuchen started running on November 25, 1945.
In 1967 the station was almost as expanded as it was in 1905. It had three tracks. Tracks 1 and 2 had bulk platforms and each had a usable length of 520 meters. Track 3 had a usable length of 160 meters, connected to it was the 160 meter long free loading track and the loading ramp. The tracks were connected to one another by seven switches. At this time, the station was equipped with entry signals and exit signals on tracks 1 and 2. There was also an inn on Ahrensfelder Chaussee at that time.
With the establishment of new residential areas in the 1979 formed district Marzahn has been prepared by S-station Friedrichsfelde Ost the train starting to gradually Ahrensfelde extended. The trains on the Wriezener (long-distance) railway were withdrawn at the same time. From May 30, 1982 the S-Bahn ended in Ahrensfelde. The station was extensively expanded in advance. A side platform and a common central platform for the trains to Werneuchen and Wriezen were created for the S-Bahn traffic . The old mechanical signal box gave way to a track plan signal box with relay technology. A new station building was built at the head of the side platform. The original plans provided for the building to be erected using a steel frame construction and masonry framework. The facades should be decorated with glass blocks . A possible extension of the S-Bahn to the Ahrensfelde Nord stop was taken into account for the location of the building. In 1987, a pedestrian bridge was built at the southern ends of the platform as a second access.
Since the timetable change on May 23, 1993, the trains ran through to Berlin-Lichtenberg again. For barrier-free access from the platform to the regional trains, the regional platform was lowered in 2009 over a length of 90 meters from 96 centimeters to 55 centimeters.
passenger traffic
The station was initially served by five daily train pairs between Lichtenberg-Friedrichsfelde and Werneuchen. After the extension to Wriezen, the trains were extended up to there, in some cases beyond to Königsberg (Neumark) . From October 15, 1903, all trains began and ended on the Wriezen platform of the Schlesisches Bahnhof in Berlin . On the section from Berlin to Werneuchen or Tiefensee , the Royal Railway Direction placed further pairs of trains until 1914, so that 16 pairs of passenger trains stopped in Ahrensfelde before the First World War .
After the end of the First World War, the timetable was almost back to pre-war levels. In the winter timetable of 1932/1933, 18 pairs of trains stopped in Ahrensfelde, one pair of express trains passed the station without stopping. With the introduction of suburban traffic, the train service between Berlin and Werneuchen was reduced to almost an hourly service, with 22 pairs of trains commuting between the two cities. On the weekends the trains were partially extended to Tiefensee.
Between April 1945 and November 24, 1945 the train traffic stopped completely. After operations resumed, four pairs of trains initially commuted between Berlin-Lichtenberg and Werneuchen, and a year later there were six pairs of trains. From May 1947 the trains ran again via Berlin-Lichtenberg to Wriezener Bahnhof, in the opposite direction the Reichsbahn extended two pairs of trains a day via Werneuchen to Tiefensee. From December 1949, the Berlin trains began again at Berlin-Lichtenberg station. By 1951, the offer increased to twelve pairs of trains between Berlin and Werneuchen, of which four pairs of trains went to Wriezen. From 1956, two more trains ran via Werneuchen to Wriezen.
With the expansion of the Biesdorfer Kreuz , the Reichsbahn temporarily withdrew the trains in the direction of Berlin-Lichtenberg from 1974 to Berlin-Marzahn, from September 25, 1976 the trains of the Wriezener Bahn ended entirely there. The section was taken over by the Berlin S-Bahn from December 30, 1976 . Since the commissioning of the S-Bahn to Ahrensfelde on December 30, 1982, the Werneuchener trains ended in Ahrensfelde. The subsequent section via Berlin-Marzahn to Berlin-Lichtenberg was only used by individual empty trains and freight traffic .
With the 1992 summer timetable, the Deutsche Reichsbahn introduced the hourly service between Ahrensfelde and Werneuchen on the route. Six pairs of trains ran every two hours via Werneuchen to Wriezen. In order to increase the capacity utilization of the Wriezener Bahn, the Reichsbahn and, from 1994, the Deutsche Bahn further expanded the offer. Since May 1993 some trains ended, and since May 1994 all trains ended again in Berlin-Lichtenberg. In the opposite direction there were now direct connections via Wriezen to Bad Freienwalde (Oder) and Angermünde . With the summer timetable of May 1997, Deutsche Bahn interrupted the direct connections to Wriezen. The section from Tiefensee to Wriezen has been interrupted since May 1998.
In December 2004, after winning the tender, the Ostdeutsche Eisenbahn (ODEG) took over operations on the line from DB Regio . Since December 9, 2006, all regional trains have ended in Werneuchen. On December 14, 2014 the Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn took over the management of the ODEG. In addition to the said RB25 line, the station is served by the S7 line of the Berlin S-Bahn . There are transfer options to the bus lines of the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe and the Barnimer Busgesellschaft .
