The Mühlheim (Main) station was the station of the Hessian city of Mühlheim am Main . Today it serves - as a stop - exclusively for S-Bahn traffic.

history

investment

The Mühlheim station was opened on November 15, 1873 as a station on the Hanau – Frankfurt line, a section of the Frankfurt-Bebraer railway, which went into operation on the same day .

On November 8, 1900, a serious rear-end collision between a passenger train and an express train occurred west of the station . Twelve dead and four injured were the result.

On May 23, 1995 , the Südmainische S-Bahn was opened parallel to this first line . A central platform was built for S-Bahn traffic. The platforms on the long-distance tracks, as well as side tracks, were dismantled.

Todays situation

The new stop serves exclusively the S-Bahn lines S8 and S9. On the Frankfurt – Offenbach – Hanau line, there is no longer any railway infrastructure , apart from the two mainline tracks of the long-distance railway . There is a transfer point for this route east of the stop.

Reception building

In the reception building from 1873 there used to be a ticket office and a train station restaurant. It was privatized. After a long period of vacancy, the building was a bit dilapidated. After renovation, there has been a café in the lower area of ​​the building since 2019. Apartments have been built on the upper floors.

Infrastructure

Mühlheim (Main) station

The stop has a central platform on the Südmainische S-Bahn. To the west of the stop, the two tracks merge into one in the direction of Offenbach Ost. To the east, the S-Bahn line is double-tracked in the direction of Hanau Hauptbahnhof , after the Mühlheim-Dietesheim stop it becomes single-track again.

business

The S-Bahn runs every 30 minutes. Since the S8 ends in the off-peak hours in Offenbach Ost, but is tied through to Hanau in the rush hour, there is a 15-minute cycle in the rush hour. In night traffic from 2:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m., the stop is only served by the S8 line.
