The Lampertheim station is the station of the South Hessian town of Lampertheim , located at the Riedbahn from Frankfurt to Mannheim .

history

Creation of the railway junction

Lampertheim received its first rail connection and station with a branch line from the Darmstadt – Worms railway line , the historic Riedbahn, the main branch of which led to the rose garden on the right bank of the Rhine opposite Worms. On October 15, 1877, a direct line from Rosengarten to Lampertheim was put into operation. It later became part of the Weinheim – Worms railway line , which went into operation on August 1, 1905. Before that, however, the Riedbahn was extended beyond Lampertheim to Mannheim on October 15, 1879 . From 1905 Lampertheim was thus a crossing station .

development

The Weinheim – Worms line was gradually abandoned by the Deutsche Bundesbahn . The section between Lampertheim and Viernheim became the May 29, 1960 shut down . The branch in the direction of Worms was also given up for through traffic. A little more than three kilometers long piece is from the station Lampertheim still pending as siding operated. It has been given a new connection about 600 m north of the train station so that the track no longer has to be routed to the road. The mileage counted from Mannheim continues to count here today. The end of the route is before km 21.8.

Accident in 1965

A serious railway accident occurred in Lampertheim station on August 12, 1965 : While overtaking, the TEE Helvetia collided with the last wagon of a freight train that had not come to a standstill and derailed . Four people died and many were injured.

modernization

In the course of the second expansion stage of the RheinNeckar S-Bahn , the stations and stops in Lampertheim, Bürstadt , Bobstadt, Biblis and Groß-Rohrheim were made barrier-free . This includes, among other things, raising the platforms from 36 cm to 76 cm above the top of the rails (SOB) . In Lampertheim, platform 3 (track 4/5) was modernized during the Hessian summer vacation 2016, and platform 2 (track 2/3) during the summer vacation 2017. The platform of track 1, the main platform , has not been modernized because the station building and platform are listed. This platform remains at a height of 55 cm. New stairways and elevators were also installed during the renovation work.

Reception building

The reception building is a type construction and is similar to the reception building of the Frankfurt am Main Stadion station . It is three-winged, has two floors in the middle and was built from yellow sandstone . The two side wings are single-storey. After a renovation in 1905, the central axis of the central building is emphasized by a gable with dormer window and an entrance pavilion on the street side. The reception building is a cultural monument due to the Hessian Monument Protection Act .

business

Lampertheim station is only served by local trains. The RE 70 regional express line connects the cities of Frankfurt and Mannheim every hour. New electric locomotives from the 446 series (“Twindexx Vario”) are used. The regional train line RB 2 runs from Biblis to Mannheim and on weekdays in the direction of Karlsruhe . The Mannheim – Biblis (–Groß-Rohrheim) section will be operated as the S 9 line of the Rhein-Neckar S-Bahn from December 2020 . The DB Regio Mitte remains the operator . Brand new Siemens Mireo vehicles are to be used.

The Riedbahn is also one of the most important long-distance routes , which is why Lampertheim station is crossed by many ICE lines. In the meantime, these are becoming a problem, as the regional trains often have to be overtaken by long-distance trains due to the close sequence of trains and therefore continue their journey with a delay. This is particularly the case with the RE 70, as it travels the entire Riedbahn. The increasing capacity utilization was recognized as early as 1993, but due to protests from many citizens' groups, it was still not possible to build a new line. All of this is also the reason why the regional trains can only run every hour.

Besides daily pass many freight trains to Lampertheim train station, a diesel locomotive of the 294 series also runs an industrial track for BASF Lampertheim.

There is also a bus stop directly at the train station, which is served by the Lampertheim city buses and the 644 regional bus (Worms – Viernheim).
