The station Lehrte is a 1843 erected passenger and freight station in the Lower Saxon town of Lehrte east of Hanover . It is an important crossing station in north-south and east-west freight traffic in Germany.
history
In the middle of the 19th century, Lehrte developed into an important railway junction for the Royal Hanoverian State Railways and became a typical so-called railway town . In 1843 the Hanover – Peine railway line was built via Lehrte, which was extended to Braunschweig in the following years and extended with side lines from Lehrte to Celle (1845) and to Hildesheim (1846).
In 1844 the station building was also built in the classical style based on plans by Eduard Ferdinand Schwarz .
The Berlin-Lehrter Railway was built by the Magdeburg-Halberstädter Railway Company (MHE) and opened continuously in 1871. It was in competition with the existing railway line via Magdeburg and Braunschweig . The end of the line was the Lehrter Bahnhof in Berlin , which was demolished in 1958. The new Berlin Central Station , located near this point, reminded of this with the addition of "Lehrter Bahnhof".
Because the increasing traffic made access to the station more difficult, an access tunnel was built in 1894 southeast of the reception building, which was accessible from both sides. At the same time, a tunnel was built to the northwest through which the platforms could be reached. In 1981 both tunnels were replaced by a new tunnel that runs under the station building.
The railway line to Hildesheim , which divided the southern core city into a western and an eastern half, was relocated in 1990 and reconnected to the route network east of Lehrte. This resulted in a long-desired traffic relief in the area of the city center. The old embankment was redesigned as an inner-city green corridor. The railway barriers typical of Lehrte had thus disappeared in the city center.
In 1998 the high-speed line from Hanover via Lehrte was opened along the old Berlin-Lehrter railway via Meinersen , Gifhorn , Wolfsburg , Oebisfelde , Stendal and Spandau to Berlin. Today, Lehrte is a local transport station. The ICE and IC travel in the direction of Berlin and the IC in the direction of Leipzig.
In 1999/2000 the station was rebuilt and the platforms on tracks 1-3 and 13/14 were increased to 76 cm, on track 11 only in 2003.
By the summer of 2008, the junction in Lehrte was redesigned to give freight trains from the freight bypass railway and from Celle a crossing-free route to Hildesheim and Braunschweig, the rails of the high-speed line were raised for this. The long-distance trains from Wolfsburg and Braunschweig have been able to travel through Lehrte at 120 km / h since then.

For local passenger traffic , Lehrte is an important hub in the Greater Hanover (GVH) traffic with a connection to the Hanover S-Bahn . Among other things, train connections of different categories from / to Bielefeld , Braunschweig, Celle, Hanover, Hildesheim, Rheine and Wolfsburg stop or end in Lehrte. Between August 2017 and December, the private long-distance train Locomore or Flixtrain stopped in Lehrte two to four times a day.

Marshalling yard
The former marshalling yard at the intersection of the north-south and east-west freight lines was reduced in size by half of its previous facilities after its closure from 1960 to 1964. In the 1960s, Seelze in the west of the Lower Saxony state capital was expanded as the central marshalling yard in the Hanover region .
Track layout
After the renovation in 2000, the Lehrter passenger station has three tracks on the “west side” (1–3) and four on the “east side” (11–14). Track 1 is mainly used by regional trains (RE30, RE60, RE70) and long-distance trains going through to Hanover. Track 2 is also used by regional trains and long-distance trains passing through in the opposite direction (Wolfsburg and Braunschweig). Track 3 is used as a sideline and by reinforcement trains in the direction of Hildesheim and Wolfsburg. Track 11 is used by S-Bahn lines 3 (direction Hildesheim) and 7 (push-pull train from Celle, direction Hanover) and freight trains (in all directions). Track 12 is currently (2019) not used for passenger traffic according to the schedule and is used as a through track for freight trains, it has no connection to the line to Celle. S-Bahn line 3 from Hildesheim in the direction of Hannover Hbf stops at platform 13. S-Bahn line 7 from Hanover turns to platform 14 to continue the journey to Celle. Track 13 and 14 are also used by freight trains in all directions.
Before the renovation in 2000, the station was largely operated in one direction. Trains to the east and south ran on track 1-3, trains to the west and north on track 11-14.
Mega hub
Since 1997 there have been plans to build a rapid transshipment facility in Lehrte to replace the facility in Hannover-Linden station . The former rail yard Taught to in this one container - rail loading station for the seaport hinterland transport ( " Megahub be rebuilt"). This is where containers are to be handled in combined transport between trains and between trucks and freight trains . The maneuvering of individual wagons is no longer necessary.
The facility will be called MegaHub Lehrte . The federal government and the railways are investing a total of around 170 million euros, prices as of 2018.
The facility will consist of two track systems with three tracks each. These are designed for train lengths of 740 m and are spanned by three 82 m wide portal cranes . In addition, the containers are handled using driverless transport vehicles .
The planning approval procedure for the construction of the megahub was completed on April 14, 2005. In November 2011, DB Netz AG and the Federal Ministry of Transport agreed on a financing agreement. The Ministry of Transport allocated 77.1 million euros to its 2011–2015 investment master plan. The start of construction was initially planned for 2012.
However , the start of construction was delayed due to unresolved detailed questions and concerns from the Lehrte city administration and residents (including noise protection ), which only arose as a result of short-term concept changes on the part of the railway that were only communicated at the end of 2013. Preparatory construction work was carried out before 2015. The amendment procedure was carried out as a plan approval procedure with a public hearing procedure from 2015, as the city of Lehrte takes the view that the changes are not insignificant and affect the interests of the resident population. A decision by the Federal Railway Authority on all of the comments received was made on February 19, 2018. In spring 2017, DB Netz AG announced that it would be completed in 2019. The official start of construction was on May 15, 2018. In February 2019, the railway set the date for the start of trial operations at the end of 2019. The deadline was kept.
To the north of the train station, the Hanover region is developing the 4.7 hectare Hanover-Lehrte freight center .
