Duisburg-Ruhrort is a breakpoint and former train station in the Ruhrort district of Duisburg in the western Ruhr area in North Rhine-Westphalia . It is the western terminus on the railway line Oberhausen Hbf - Duisburg-Ruhrort, which is now only used by passenger traffic . Under the name Ruhrort Bf, it is also a bus and tram stop for lines 901, 907 and 909 as well as NE1 in night traffic served by the Duisburger Verkehrsgesellschaft .

history

The Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (CME) inaugurated the line from Oberhausen to Ruhrort on October 14, 1848 . This was a branch line to the Duisburg - Dortmund railway line , part of the main line of the Cologne-Mindener Railway Company . It was intended mainly to transport coal to the Rhine and was carried out without intermediate stops. From November 12, 1852, there was a Rhine crossing with the Ruhrort-Homberger Trajektanstalt . In Homberg there was a connection to the route to Gladbach .

In 1866 the Bergisch-Märkische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (BME) took over the royal management of the Aachen-Düsseldorf-Ruhrorter Eisenbahn , together with its Ruhrort - Gladbach line . Starting from the Styrum train station , the BME extended its Ruhr area route initially to Meiderich and ten months later parallel to the CME route to Ruhrort.

Level crossing at the Duisburg-Ruhrort train station, 1906, with a tram train from the Ruhrorter Straßenbahn AG district. Ringbahn Ruhrort – Laar – Meiderich

Before 1873, the BME expanded its Meiderich – Ruhrort route by a second track, and in 1881 the second track followed on the CME route. Thus, four tracks now led from Meiderich to Ruhrort. With the Emschertalbahn of the Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn, the station was connected to a third line in 1875. The train service ends in 1883. From 1905 the station was called Duisburg-Ruhrort .

As early as 1930 the Reichsbahndirektion Essen stopped passenger traffic on the Emschertalbahn. During the Second World War , two thirds of the station building from 1848 was destroyed and then abandoned. In 1959 a new station building was built in the style of the time. It was a low-rise brick building. A large flat roof connected to the platform area at the counter hall .

At the end of the 1980s, the Essen Federal Railway Directorate shut down the second track on both lines and turned the station back into a stopping point . Passenger traffic on the route to Mülheim-Styrum ended in 1995. The platform was relocated north of the reception building in the late 1990s, and the route has since ended bluntly in front of Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse. The building had since fallen into disrepair and was demolished in 2007 .

traffic

For local rail passenger transport , the station is served exclusively by the regional train RB 36 every half hour. In 2010, NordWestBahn won the tender until 2025 and uses LINT 41 diesel multiple units .
