history

Langenlonsheim station was built in 1858 as a station on the Nahe Valley Railway. From 1878 at the latest, the station had at least four tracks, two of which were main tracks. In 1889 the Hunsrückquerbahn was introduced into the station. However, the station remained only a branch station, as the passenger trains were always tied to Bingerbrück or Bad Kreuznach . The few trains that ended in the station never had long waiting times before they drove back to Simmern. There was a stump track (track 10) for trains from the Hunsrück , which was dismantled in 1978. Otherwise, through tracks 1 and 2 and passing track 3 were mainly used. There were also freight tracks that were mainly used for train journeys. In 1900 the station received two switch and signal boxes.

On February 10, 1914, "when darkness fell", new "double light pre-signals " were put into operation for the entrance from the direction of Simmern , which corresponded to the shape signal model that is still in use today .

In the 1930s , the station was expanded and modernized by threading the line from Rüdesheim from the Hindenburg bridge and the Hunsrückquerbahn without crossing and renewing the Langenlonsheim signal boxes (Lf and Ln). Since April 1, 1933, the Hindenburgbrücke block was assigned to the station. After the Hindenburg Bridge was destroyed in World War II, the corresponding track was dismantled after 1945. Remnants of this threading (overpass structure and track stump) are still there today.

Until the 1960s , passenger traffic was handled using level access to the platform, which has since been replaced by an overpass. During the construction of the underpass, the central platform was created on track 2/3.

The two mechanical interlockings Lf and Ln were replaced in 1978 by a push-button interlocking DrL60. Some tracks and switches were removed, including track 10. Until 1984, the trains on the Hunsrückquerbahn stopped on track 3.

In the 1990s , all of the sidings were dismantled, so that today there are only a few traces that bear witness to the former size of the station. There are still the signal box Ln, a drain mountain and a large birch forest in the area of ​​the freight tracks.

From 1911 to 1938, line 2 of the now disused tram Bad Kreuznach ended at the station .

Railway systems

While the station now only has two continuous main tracks and one non-continuous main track, it used to have many more tracks that were gradually dismantled over the decades. However , the station was never of great importance as a freight yard , as the freight trains were mostly already hauled in Bingerbrück.

There is a pedestrian overpass above the station for the safe passage from the 1960s. However, the overpass is not barrier-free , as a corresponding expansion has so far failed due to lack of space and financial resources. In the municipal council, however, the expansion of the overpass, particularly with regard to accessibility, but also in the form of the expansion to the industrial area east of the train station, is planned as an urgent measure.

The reception building is located at Naheweinstrasse 184 and now houses a restaurant .
