location

history
Mundenheim station itself was opened in 1886. Just four years later - on October 15, 1890 - the narrow-gauge Ludwigshafen – Dannstadt railway line was opened, which crossed the Ludwigsbahn north of the station at the same level. The transition was signal-secured. This made Mundenheim a connecting station. Years later it was renamed "Ludwigshafen-Mundenheim", thus taking into account the incorporation of the place into Ludwigshafen in 1899. On March 1, 1911, the narrow-gauge line was extended to Meckenheim. The narrow-gauge tracks were parallel to Maudacher Strasse ; in front of the station building there were four tracks with pouring platforms. The freight track branched off from Maudach in the west in front of these tracks and led south to the goods shed .
In 1922 the station was incorporated into the newly established Ludwigshafen Reich Railway Directorate . From 1933 the narrow-gauge line began only from Mundenheim; the section to Ludwigshafen was closed. A locomotive shed and an investigation pit were therefore built in the triangle between passenger and freight tracks in front of the station building. In the course of the dissolution of the Ludwigshafen management on April 1, 1937, the station changed to the area of responsibility of the Mainz management.
In 1955 the narrow-gauge railway to Meckenheim was shut down. In 1970 the ticket office was closed. In 1971 the station came under the responsibility of its Karlsruhe counterpart in the course of the dissolution of the Mainz management.
In 2003 the Mannheim – Saarbrücken line to Kaiserslautern was integrated into the RheinNeckar S-Bahn network . The S-Bahn was opened on December 14, 2003, and the station has been integrated into its system ever since. However , after several delays, the final expansion of the station to meet the needs of the disabled did not begin until May 2008. As no final decision had been made on the track infrastructure or the future location of the platforms, the platforms at Mundenheim station were provisionally raised with wooden planks. After the barrier-free conversion of the central platform on tracks 2 and 4, the main platform on track 1 was opened to passenger traffic and access to the track was blocked.
Operationally, Mundenheim station is now only a part of Ludwigshafen main station.
Freight transport
On the eastern side there was an open loading siding , on the western side south of the reception building there was a goods shed that could be reached from both the standard gauge track and the narrow-gauge track. The standard gauge / narrow gauge reloading tracks were located south of the goods shed . Again south of it there was a siding to the southern German gasoline works. A freight line branches off to the east in a southerly direction that leads to the Rhine and BASF .
