history

Railway projects around Jockgrim

Originally it was planned to start operating a railway line in north-south direction from the Rheinschanze via Lauterbourg to Strasbourg within the Rhine district belonging to Bavaria , which should compete with the Mannheim – Basel line planned by Baden . However, this was postponed in favor of the Palatinate Ludwigshafen - Bexbach, which opened between 1847 and 1849 . In the period that followed, discussions took place as to whether a route along the mountains from Neustadt via Landau to Wissembourg or a route along the Rhine via Speyer , Germersheim and Wörth was more urgent and desirable. Since the military in particular preferred a route on the edge of the Palatinate Forest , one in the form of the Neustadt an der Weinstrasse – Wissembourg railway was preferred.

In 1864 the Speyer route opened in 1847 was extended to Germersheim. In 1863 and 1864, a local committee from Rülzheim tried to extend this route to Wörth , which resulted in a first draft shortly afterwards. On July 25, 1876, the connection of the line to Wörth including the Jockgrim station was finally opened.

Further development

In 1922 the station was incorporated into the newly established Ludwigshafen Reich Railway Directorate . In the course of its dissolution on April 1, 1937, he moved to the area of ​​responsibility of the Mainz management.

The German Federal Railways was divided the station after the Second World War in the Bundesbahndirektion Mainz one, they all railway lines within the newly created state of Rhineland-Palatinate allotted. In 1971 the station came under the responsibility of its Karlsruhe counterpart in the course of the dissolution of the Mainz management. In the 1990s the station was dismantled to a stopping point . In mid-December 2010 it was integrated into the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn network.
