The Dürrenwaid train station is on the Rodach Valley Railway . It was built in 1901 at kilometer 23.37, about three kilometers west of the village of Dürrenwaid in the municipality of Markt Nordhalben in Bavaria .
The service building is a single-storey boarded-up building. At the top it closes with a flat, slate-covered gable roof.
The loading tracks at the stop served until the 1980s as a loading point for the school furniture factory AMA and the television set manufacturer Graetz .
On May 30, 1976, passenger traffic was stopped on the line, the loading tracks were dismantled on April 29, 1985.
Long-term use of the building as a vacation home by a family from Berlin saved it from demolition. After it was taken over by Eisenbahnfreunde Rodachtalbahn , it serves as a clubhouse and operating building for the museum railway that has been operating on the route since September 2007.
