The Bahnhof Essen-Borbeck is a transit stop in Essen district Borbeck .
history
At the time of industrialization in the Ruhr area , on December 1, 1872, a section of the Mülheim-Heißen-Oberhausen-Osterfeld Nord railway between Heißen via the Schönebeck and Borbeck junction to Frintrop , operated by the Rheinische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft , initially went into operation for freight traffic. Borbeck was an industrial site with the hard coal deposits available here. Passenger traffic began operating on July 1, 1879 between Heißen and Osterfeld Nord . The railroad tracks, seven double tracks for freight and passenger traffic, were roughly along today's Heinrich-Brauns-Straße. 1908 began to lay the tracks on a dam.
On March 25, 1912, the connecting line to what was then Essen-Altendorf station on the Osterath – Dortmund Süd railway line went into operation for freight traffic. Passenger traffic took place here between June 1925 and May 1950. This connection was electrified for freight traffic in 1980, but closed in August 1984 and the branch dismantled the following year.
The train station opened with the name Borbeck was renamed Essen-Borbeck in 1922 after Borbeck had previously been incorporated into the city of Essen in 1915.
In 2007 the interlocking (Ebo) that went into operation in February 1974 was taken out of service, with the previous entry and exit signals being replaced by self-blocking signals . In this context, on October 14, 2007, Deutsche Bahn rededicated the station as a stopping point in accordance with the railway building and operating regulations .
lobby
The station building of the Borbeck train station was built in 1911 when the tracks were raised on a railway embankment. It has been a listed building since 1990. Originally it had a ticket office, a police station, a waiting room for 1st and 2nd class and one for 3rd and 4th class, baggage handling and a non-smoking area. It was not until 1992 that an underpass was built from Fürstäbtissinstraße to the tracks and on to the reception building as part of extensive renovation work. In this context, the embankment was made narrower and the bus station was rebuilt.
Around the year 2000 the station building, which had since fallen into disrepair and for which the Deutsche Bahn no longer saw any use, went into private ownership for 690,000 Deutsche Mark . It was then redeveloped. In 2001, within eight months, a five-meter-wide oil painting was created in the Alte Cuesterey , an approximately 200-year-old house in Borbeck, planned and executed by a Borbeck company and designed by Adolf Lohmann (* 1928; † 2018) with Borbeck motifs, including the Borbeck Castle , the St. Dionysius Church , the Steenkamop Hof, the Kronprinz colliery and the Vossgätters Mühle. The reception hall was inaugurated on April 12, 2001 in the presence of the then Mayor Wolfgang Reiniger . The entire hall was renovated again in 2013. It can be used for events and exhibitions.
