construction
The Huerth-Kalscheuren station is a separation station in island shape . The station building is located between track 1, on which there is a house platform , and track 51; there are switch connections between the two tracks to the north and south of the station building. Next to the main platform there are two island platforms , these are located on tracks 53 and 51 or 2 and 3. The latter can only be reached through an underpass with stairs and, unlike the rest of the platforms, are not barrier-free. The platform on the Eifel line at tracks 51 and 53 can be reached via a ramp, but it is too low for the trains stopping here.
Tracks 1 and 2 belong to the left Rhine route Cologne – Bonn – Koblenz, tracks 3 and 4 (the latter without platform connection) to the freight line to Ehrenfeld and Nippes Gbf . The tracks 51 and 53 and other tracks without platform represent the beginning of the Eifel circuit is Cologne-Euskirchen-Kall-Gerolstein.

history
The left Rhine route ran some distance from the places of the then mayor's office in Hürth. A train station was therefore not planned by the railway. Only in 1859 was a train station built at the instigation of the mayor's office. It was located on the Hermülheim side of the route, in the immediate vicinity of the Kalscheuren farm, where only 52 people lived with outbuildings even in 1887. The building consisted of two two-and-a-half-storey and three-tier buildings standing parallel to each other and at right angles to the track, between which a two-window-wide, two-storey central building was drawn into the front and closed off from the platform with a canopy supported on stands. With the construction of the Eifel line, which branched off directly in front of the station, the station became "an island location". However, the building was directly accessible from Rodenkirchener Strasse, which crossed the tracks at the station. The building was demolished in 1961. The more distant tracks had to be reached via crossings.
The station was renamed from Kalscheuren to Hürth-Kalscheuren in 1991/92 at the instigation of the city of Hürth, for 14,000 D-Marks at the time .
