history

The Gmund am Tegernsee train station was built in 1883 as the terminus of the Schaftlach – Gmund railway line . When the station opened, the reception building was also inaugurated. In 1902 the railway line was extended to Tegernsee , so that the station lost its importance as a terminus. All the facilities required for railway operations were relocated from Gmund to Tegernsee. In 1949 the locomotive shed on the eastern edge of the station area was demolished and replaced by a bus garage. In 1980 the track plan was simplified by dismantling several side tracks, at the same time all signals were dismantled and replaced by trapezoidal panels . The operation is since about 2000 on an electronic interlocking of the type SICAS S5 of Siemens and Alcatel remotely controlled so that the station is unoccupied today.

traffic

In addition, individual amplifier trains run in commuter and excursion traffic, so that every half-hourly service is offered on the route in the load direction.
