history

The station was opened for both passenger and freight traffic on May 15, 1875 by the Royal Bavarian State Railways together with the Nuremberg - Ansbach section of the later Nuremberg - Crailsheim railway. Its original name Stein (near Nuremberg) was changed to Nuremberg-Stein for the 1939 summer timetable . It became the hub station with the commissioning of the track connection to the Ringbahn branching off from the station on October 1, 1898 and the opening of the Bibertbahn to Dietenhofen on May 22, 1914. The large power station Franken I was opened in 1913, which had a siding from the start. As a result, the volume of goods rose sharply in the following years and reached its peak in 1964 with 621,000 tons of coal, before it began to decline again after the power station was converted to gas and oil firing. On September 26, 1986, the final suspension of passenger traffic on the Bibertbahn, the route of which was almost completely dismantled in 2007 except for the station exit. In 1993 the platform tunnel was opened to the newly created Südwestpark . The station was upgraded with the S-Bahn to Ansbach, which went into operation at the end of 2010, for which platform 2 was converted to be barrier-free from 2009 and reopened on September 14, 2010 when the line construction work was completed. When the S-Bahn line opened, it was planned to rename the station to Nürnberg-Südwestpark , but this will not be implemented for the time being due to cost reasons.

As part of the immediate seaport-hinterland traffic program , measures worth six million euros have increased the speed at which platform 5 can travel to 120 km / h.
