The Fehmarn-Burg station is a railway stop in Burg on Fehmarn , the central part of the island. It is a bit off the Lübeck – Puttgarden railway line , to which it is connected with two connecting curves. After passenger and freight traffic to Burg was stopped in 1984, the station was without traffic. In 2010 a new stop about 200 meters north of the old station went into operation, giving Burg again its own railway connection.
In 2018, it was decided to expand the stop into a cross-border local transport hub from 2022.
history
On September 8, 1905, the town of Burg received its station with the opening of the Fehmarn Island Railway from Fehmarnsund station via Burgstaaken, Burg to Orth in the west of the island. The station was in the west of the city in a north-south direction. The station building was to the east of the track system, had two and a half stories with an attached goods shed and had a house platform. At the northern head of the station there was a two-tier engine shed with a workshop and a water tower. A single-track railcar shed was added. In the northern area was the long loading road, here the local agricultural trade settled. Freight traffic consisted mainly of agricultural products: grain, sugar beet, straw and cattle transports (there was a cattle loading ramp for this purpose ) to the slaughterhouses, artificial fertilizer and coal were supplied. Initially there were four pairs of trains a day in passenger traffic. In 1938 there were five pairs of trains on weekdays to Orth and Heiligenhafen and six on Sundays. Passenger traffic in the direction of Orth ended in 1956. In 1962 there were seven pairs of trains a day to Heiligenhafen, eight on weekdays. The station had two entry signals until 1963, the points were manually operated.
In 1963 the Vogelfluglinie went into operation and the island was connected to the mainland with a bridge. The Burg train station was connected to the new continuous route to the Puttgarden ferry port at the Burg West depot via a triangular track . On April 30, 1963, the line from the mainland via Burg West to Burg went into operation, followed by the connection to Puttgarden on May 15, where the new ferry station to Denmark was built. Traffic between Burg, Burgstaaken and Fehmarnsund ceased shortly after the new line opened. In 1963, Burg station was only served by two express trains on the outskirts of the day.
Freight traffic to Orth continued until 1974, and between Burg and Landkirchen until 1995.
In the 1970s, most long-distance trains to Denmark went directly to Puttgarden and did not serve the station in Burg. In the winter of 1970/71, the train station in Burg was approached by two pairs of express trains and one pair of local trains, which made heads on the way to and from Puttgarden in Burg. In the last few years of operation, the D-Zug Fehmarn-Express ran to and from Burg in the summer season . Coming from the south, he first drove to Puttgarden and from there over the northern curve to Burg, the southern curve of the track triangle was already without traffic. On September 24, 1983, passenger traffic at Burg station ended. After the cessation of goods traffic to Landkirchen, the Burg station went out of service.
In 2010 the line to Burg was reactivated, instead of the old train station, a new stop was built about 200 meters to the north. Since the 2014 timetable, it has been served every two hours by regional trains from the direction of Lübeck , which all continue to Puttgarden depending on the season. In addition, there was an intercity train pair between Cologne and Fehmarn-Burg in the summer season. In 2018 this pair of intercity trains ran seasonally at different times of the day. The new stop was built by the AKN Eisenbahn .
The building of the old train station remained until 2017 and was used privately.

future
During the double-track expansion and electrification of the railway line between Lübeck and Puttgarden to connect the rails for the Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link (FBQ), trains will not be able to travel between Puttgarden and Neustadt for five years from 2022. During this time, there should be high-quality replacement service every hour with double-decker buses between Puttgarden and Lübeck, which provide a train connection in Haffkrug .
During the construction work, the train station in Burg will be expanded into a cross-border local transport hub. A second track is being built so that trains from Germany to Denmark can meet. The existing platform will be converted into a central platform and extended. In future, planned cross-border regional trains Lübeck – Fehmarn – Nykøbing will meet in Burg.
AKN is converting the Fehmarn-Burg station as the responsible railway infrastructure company (EIU) on behalf of NAH.SH.
DB Netz AG, which is responsible for the rail infrastructure outside the station, is building a storage facility with four sidings in the area of the track triangle.
The renovation of the Fehmarn-Burg station is to begin in 2022 at the earliest and will be completed during the closure for the expansion of the FBQ rail connection to the hinterland.
