history

The station was opened in May 1993 when the "Ringspoorbaan", which is part of the Weesp – Leiden line , was opened to traffic on the section between the Amsterdam RAI and Weesp stations . The station was built to provide transfer options between the stations of the Ringspoorbaan and the crossing Amsterdam – Arnhem line . From the start, the M50 and M54 metro lines also stopped at the station . The ICE-International between Frankfurt am Main and Amsterdam Centraal stopped here occasionally until 2007. The Utrechtboog overpass structure was completed in December 2006 . Since then, fewer trains have served Duivendrecht, as the Utrechtboog eliminated the need to change trains from Utrecht to Amsterdam Zuid and Schiphol Airport .
