Hamburg-Bahrenfeld is a former train station and today's stop in the Hamburg district of Bahrenfeld . The lines S1 and S11 of the Hamburg S-Bahn run there. The address is Hegarstrasse 1. It used to be used with extensive track systems, among other things, to connect the Ottensener Industriebahn and the Margarine Union .

history

S-Bahn platform (2008)

The original station on the Altona-Blankeneser Eisenbahn was built by the Altona-Kieler Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (AKE). On May 19, 1867, it was initially opened as a single-track stop . On March 1, 1883, the AKE lines were taken over by the Prussian state . In the 1890s, the line was subsequently raised and double-tracked. In 1896 the new Bahrenfeld train station opened, the reception building of which is still standing today. The Hamburg-Altona city and suburban railway has operated here since 1908, electrified and without level crossings.

In addition to passenger traffic, the station, located in a designated factory district, also served goods traffic, including a track to the Langenfelde marshalling yard . To connect these factories, the Ottensener industrial railway was built and opened on August 31, 1898. It had a roll stand on Borselstrasse, today's Gaußstrasse, southeast of the train station. There the standard-gauge freight wagons were moved to the narrow-gauge tracks. In 1903 a similar roll stand transfer system was also created on the north side, at Borselstraße II station. The heavy freight traffic led to the station being overloaded until 1920, so that in 1923 the transfer station Kruppstraße with a siding to the Eidelstedt marshalling yard was created in the north . Subsequently, the northern transfer station Borselstraße II was closed. Its tracks were only dismantled after the Second World War . After the decline of Ottensen's industry in the 1970s, the industrial railway was shut down in 1980. However, there was still the factory connection to the Margarine Union, which operated with its own orange diesel locomotives until the 1980s. In the 2000s, a new building with apartments and businesses was built on the area of ​​the transfer tracks south of the S-Bahn platform.

In 2012/13 an elevator was added in the middle of the S-Bahn platform instead of one (of two) stairs, and the historic platform roof was renovated. As in Hochkamp , Klein Flottbek and Othmarschen, there was a small train station pub on the platform , the vacant building of which was demolished when the platform was redesigned in 2020.

Location and construction

Today it is a double-track S-Bahn station with a central platform in the embankment. It is located parallel to Hegarstrasse, to which there is also an exit, as is the case for Friedensallee (formerly Pfitznerstrasse here). The dispatcher interlocking formerly at the eastern end of the platform was built in 1924. With the dismantling of the freight tracks in the 1980s and 1990s, it became superfluous. In addition, switches and light signals of the S-Bahn had been set by the signal box As (Altona S-Bahn) at Altona station since April 1979 .

To the north of the S-Bahn tracks there was a pull-out track ending in front of the station building . There were also goods sheds on the north side (some of the open space on Gasstrasse is still today). The German-American Petroleum Society / Esso , Böttcher and Genser and Conz companies were connected via the tracks there . On the site of the former Esso tank farm at the Bahrenfelder Steindamm / corner of Gasstrasse, Euler-Hermes-Kreditversicherung has built its new building by 2020 . There was also a siding to the municipal gas works, today the Otto von Bahrenpark , which is used for trade and events ("gas works"), is located here . The empty bridge over Gasstrasse can still be seen today. The Ottensener industrial railway was connected via the Borselstraße II station further to the east. In its place there is now a playground, the Ottensen train station has been built since 2019 on the route of the Altona-Blankeneser railway. The freight track to Langenfelde also still exists today. Another track led from Borselstrasse II station further east, roughly at street level, across Bahrenfelder Steindamm to a small station on the Kohlentwiete there. Further tracks of the industrial railway also ran from the former Borselstraße II station far north to Langenfelde, some remains of the track can still be seen. The remaining open-air area is reserved for possible additional parking facilities for S-Bahn extensions (S4 / S32).

In the south there were the extensive tracks to the Mohr margarine factory (later Margarine Union) southwest of the station. It was connected with a bridge over the Friedensallee that branched off diagonally to the southwest. Since the 2000s, a residential area has been built on the site of the margarine factory around the newly laid out streets Friesenweg and Johann-Mohr-Weg. The tracks ran down to Baurstrasse. The sidings of the companies Gätcke Glasfabrik, Kolbenschmidt , Künker & Co. and Alsterhaus (then PF Schröder, then Schwarzkopf ) were located immediately south of the S-Bahn station . The Euler-Hermes high-rise , which was approved for demolition in 2020, is still on the Gätcke site between Bahrenfelder Kirchenweg (formerly Glashüttenstrasse) and Friedensallee . The Borselstrasse I station (today Gaußstrasse) was to be found in the southeast. Numerous other street-level narrow-gauge tracks of the Ottensen industrial railway branched off here. They led far into Ottensen , where there are also some remains of track. The Thalia-Theater maintains its prop store on the premises of the Borselstrasse I / Gaußstrasse station. There is also a way to the Ottensen train station, which is currently under construction.

In addition, there is a two-story park & ​​ride car park on Friedensallee, built in the 1980s, with 251 spaces and 72 bike-and-ride spaces.
