The Breisach train station is the train station of the Baden-Württemberg city of Breisach on the Upper Rhine . Today the Breisacher Bahn to Freiburg and the Kaiserstuhlbahn to Riegel have their starting points here. The Breisacherstrasse train inverted to the destruction of Breisacherstrasse railway bridge over the Rhine 1945 Breisach from there further to the French Colmar .
history
As part of a planned European east-west link, the Freiburg - Breisach line was completed in September 1871 . After the construction of the railway bridge over the Rhine in 1878, the route was continued to Colmar in Alsace . The trains took around 70 minutes to travel between Freiburg and Colmar, and around 35 minutes from Breisach.
In 1895, the private line of the Kaiserstuhlbahn from Breisach via Endingen and Riegel to Gottenheim was opened. This made Breisach a small railway junction . In 1914, Breisach was given today's station building in place of the temporary barracks that had previously been built . During the First World War , the route between Breisach and Colmar saw a significant increase in traffic due to military traffic.
Since Alsace no longer belonged to the German Empire from 1918 , Breisach became the border station between Germany and France . As a result, the importance of the Breisach Railway decreased significantly. The Breisach railway bridge was blown up at the end of the Second World War in February 1945. The railway line to Colmar was not rebuilt afterwards.
On June 1, 1997, passenger transport on the Breisacher Bahn was taken over by Breisgau-S-Bahn GmbH (BSB), founded in 1996 , which is a 50% subsidiary of Südwestdeutsche Verkehrs-Aktiengesellschaft (SWEG) and Freiburger Verkehrs AG (VAG) heard. The DB Netz AG is the successor of the DB continue operator of rail infrastructure, the station itself belongs to DB Station & Service .
Reception building
The stately and by today's standards somewhat oversized station building of the Breisach train station was built in 1913/14 from Kaiserstuhl basalt ( volcanic rock ). It replaced the temporary barracks that had existed since the Breisach Railway opened.
Track systems
As the former operating center of the Breisacher Bahn , the Breisacher Bahnhof still has extensive track systems today (2015). A total of three tracks on a house platform and an island platform are available for passenger traffic .
The numbering begins on the northwest side of the reception building .
- Track 1 is the main platform directly in front of the station building. Today the trains of the Breisgau-S-Bahn to and from Freiburg stop here .
- Track 2 shares an island platform with track 4 . Today the Kaiserstuhlbahn SWEG trains stop here in the direction of Endingen and Riegel .
- Track 4 is on the platform next to track 2. The track is only used as a sideline in the afternoon for the trains of the Breisacher Bahn in the scheduled local rail transport.
- Track 5 is a siding without a platform.
- Track 6 is a dead end .
Tracks 5 and 6 can only be reached from the route by sawing across track 4. A freight forwarding siding is available here.
The platforms at Breisach train station are barrier-free . To get to the platform on tracks 2 and 4, you have to go over the pedestrian crossing on tracks 1 and 2. Before the conversion for the Breisgau S-Bahn, the central platform had a roof.
Here the tracks have been dismantled. At the beginning of the nineties, there were still at least four parking and loading tracks. The Kaiserstuhlbahn originally had its own train station northeast of the current track system, east of the reception building. The own access to the line was given up, in 1960 the track from Riegel merged with the federal railway line from Freiburg at km 25.89. There was also a separate departure track for passenger trains northeast of the building on the northern side of the main platform. It had its own bypass, and there were also two sidings and a municipal siding for companies on Kandelstrasse.
traffic
train
On the Breisacher Bahn to Freiburg im Breisgau , the Breisgau S-Bahn has been running every hour to half an hour since June 1, 1997 . From December 2019 the DB Regio will operate here with the 2020 Breisgau S-Bahn in the direction of Freiburg and on weekdays to Titisee, Seebrugg and Villingen (Black Forest). The trains run every half hour. On the Kaiserstuhlbahn to Riegel am Kaiserstuhl operated by the Südwestdeutsche Verkehrs-AG (SWEG), Breisgau S-Bahn railcars of the type Regio-Shuttle RS 1 also run . There is usually an hourly service on the Kaiserstuhlbahn. Since 1978, the museum steam train Rebenbummler of the Eisenbahnfreunde Breisgau eV , which consists entirely of former SEG vehicles of the Kaiserstuhlbahn and other SEG routes , has also been running for festivals along the Kaiserstuhlbahn .
bus
In the bus traffic, there is another direct connection with the bus route 31 of the Freiburger Verkehrs AG via the districts Hochstetten, Gündlingen , Ober- and Niederrimsingen from and to Freiburg.
With the regional bus route 1076, Südbadenbus operates a direct connection across the Rhine to the sister city of Neu-Breisach and on to Colmar in Alsace, as well as a bus connection to Freiburg with route 7211 that supplements rail traffic in peripheral locations.
The traffic of the Kaiserstuhlbahn is supplemented by a bus line to Vogtsburg .
Two of the Südbadenbus GmbH and the company Tuniberg Express powered city bus lines serve the central city. The smallest and most southerly district of Grezhausen is connected to the city center and the train station by a shared taxi line.
