The Neuoetting Station is an operating agency of the railway line from Munich to Simbach . It is located in the Eisenfelden district of the Upper Bavarian municipality of Winhöring north of the city of Neuötting . The Royal Bavarian State Railways put the station into operation in 1871. From 1906 to 1930 a steam tram to Altötting began on the station forecourt . In 1980 the Neuötting station was dismantled to a stop and in 2015 to a stop. The station building from 1871 is a listed building .

location

Neuötting train station is in the Winhöring municipality on the northern outskirts of Eisenfelden. The old town of Neuötting is about two kilometers away on the other side of the Inn , which runs one kilometer south of the station. To the east of the station, Reischacher Strasse, the former state road to Eggenfelden , crosses the track with a level crossing . The Unterau district of Winhöring is located southwest of the station, and the Burg district to the northwest .

The stop is at route kilometers 87.780 of the single-track and non-electrified main line from Munich East via Mühldorf to Simbach ( route number 5600). The meter-gauge steam tram began on the station forecourt and led via Neuötting's old town to Kapellplatz in Altötting .

history

Establishment and first years of operation

In the course of the planning for the main line Munich – Simbach, the council committee of the market town Altötting applied for a route between Altötting and Neuötting with a common train station on February 25, 1865. Since this route would have required two additional bridges over the Inn, the General Directorate of the Royal Bavarian Transport Authority decided on a route north of the Inn. This created the Neuötting train station in the small village of Eisenfelden, away from both places . Due to the high number of pilgrims expected in the pilgrimage to Altötting, the general management for the Neuötting station planned large-scale platforms and buildings in its building construction program from 1868. In September 1869 she estimated construction costs of 54,220 guilders for the construction of the station facilities  . In the course of the railway construction, the Isen -Altwasser was moved south of the station and the Neuötting-Eggenfelden state road to the north over the new station forecourt .

When it opened on May 1, 1871, the Neuötting station was the provisional terminus of the line coming from Munich, as the completion of the Neuötting – Simbach section was delayed. For the provisional operation, the Bavarian State Railways temporarily equipped the station with a wooden locomotive shed and a turntable , which they brought from the Haidhausen station to Neuötting. Since the station building was not yet completed, the service rooms were initially housed in the construction hut at the eastern end of the station. On June 1, 1871, the Bavarian State Railways put the last section of the line into operation, so that Neuötting became an intermediate station .

Reception building with station staff (1902)

As an 1st class expedition with a postal service and a water station, the station was equipped with a three-storey reception building, a goods shed , a water house and two exchange attendant houses at the entry points. He was also the seat of a railway maintenance office . The track system consisted of three main tracks with two platforms and a local freight system in the west of the station.

The station was of great importance in passenger and freight traffic from the start. With 38,185 tickets sold in the operating year 1884, it was the intermediate station with the second largest passenger traffic on the route after the Mühldorf train station; in freight traffic it had the largest volume of all intermediate stations. In 1889 the station was given a second loading platform . From 1897 it was classified as a second class station with postal service . After the opening of the local railway Mühldorf – Burghausen with its own station in Altötting in 1897, the volume of traffic fell significantly. The number of tickets sold fell from 40,579 in the operating year 1896 to 30,280 in the operating year 1899.

In 1900, the Bavarian State Railways equipped the station with Krauss- type mechanical interlockings to centralize the point and signal operation and further expanded the freight traffic facilities. An additional siding was created between the main tracks and the local freight track . The loading ramp was relocated to the goods shed and an open loading platform was set up in its previous location .

Steam tram and dismantling

In 1905 the Bavarian State Railways began building a meter-gauge steam tram from Neuötting station to Altötting ; on August 16, 1906, they put the line into operation. The tram stop with a bypass was on the forecourt in front of the reception building, the narrow-gauge tracks ended at the freight shed at the station. To distinguish it from the tram stops in the Neuötting urban area, the Bavarian State Railways renamed the Neuötting station when the tram started operating .

On April 1, 1930, the Deutsche Reichsbahn stopped operating the steam tram, so that the station lost its transfer function. On May 15, 1930 he was given the name Neuötting again . The narrow-gauge tracks in front of the station were dismantled shortly afterwards.

As a result of the decline in traffic on the Mühldorf – Simbach section, the Deutsche Bundesbahn converted the Neuötting station into an unoccupied stop and alternative junction (Awanst Hstu) on February 1, 1980 . In the course of this, she dismantled the sidings and most of the sidings and automated the level crossing on Reischacher Strasse, which was operated from the train station. The Deutsche Bundesbahn set up new block signals on both sides of the stop . As a result, the high-rise buildings were demolished except for the station building and the goods shed.

In April 2015, DB RegioNetz Infrastruktur dismantled the remaining siding to a warehouse north of the main line, so that the Neuötting stop became a stop.

Reception building

Reception building from the track side (2020)

The reception building of the Neuötting station is an elongated, symmetrically laid out brick building in exposed brick, which architecturally differs significantly from the other station buildings on the Munich – Simbach railway line. It consists of a three-storey central building with a flat protruding hipped roof , to which two-storey side wings connect on both sides. A 70-meter-long, semi-open vestibule with a pent roof is built on the track side of the building , which extends over the main building on both sides. The vestibule is limited to the street by arched walls attached to the main building ; on the open side of the track, the pent roof is supported on 16 upstream pillars. The vestibule is closed off at both ends by one-story outbuildings with flat hip roofs, in which the toilets were located. The main building has five arched doors on the track side and three on the street side. The doors and windows are covered with sandstone soffits ; In addition, the facades are structured by side projections and cornices . The main building was later given a single-storey extension on the west side.

At the opening, the ground floor of the central building contained an anteroom, a first and second class waiting room , the station manager's office and a room for the station servant, while the west wing contained the third class waiting room and the east wing the duty room ( expedition ). On the upper floors there were service apartments for the railway staff. The station building has been empty since 1980 and has fallen into serious disrepair. It is a protected architectural monument .

Track systems

After its completion, Neuötting station was equipped with three main tracks . The continuous main track was on the house platform ; north of it was a 591 meter long siding with an intermediate platform and a 434 meter long siding without a platform. To the south of the main tracks was the local freight facility, which was connected on one side to the west, in which a stump track led east to the goods shed and west to the loading ramp. The local freight rail was a car hub branched off from the three short charging socket, and a weighbridge equipped.

After the station renovation in 1900, the continuous main track was located between the two sidings on the intermediate platform and the southern sidings on the house platform. The facilities for freight traffic in the south-west of the station were expanded considerably: the local freight track was now connected on both sides; the relocated loading ramp was now to the east of the goods shed on the eastern stump track, while the western stump track was on a loading road . There was an additional siding between the main tracks and the local freight facility; south of the loading road there were three further stump tracks connected to the west, which were used as open loading tracks and as transfer tracks to the tram. From 1934 there was a small locomotive shed in the west end of the station , which was connected to the freight tracks.

After the dismantling to the stop, only a 236 meter long and 36 centimeter high side platform is left on the track.

traffic

passenger traffic

In the first regular timetable in 1872, two pairs of mail trains and a pair of freight trains with passenger transport from Munich to Simbach and a pair of express trains from Ulm to Simbach stopped in Neuötting every day . However, the express train stop was given up again in 1873. By 1895, the Bavarian State Railways increased the number of trains at Neuötting station to five pairs of passenger trains between Munich and Simbach. From 1899 to 1902 Neuötting was again a stop for a pair of express trains from Munich to Simbach.

In the 1939 summer timetable, the Deutsche Reichsbahn operated the station with four pairs of passenger trains from Munich to Simbach and two pairs of trains from Mühldorf to Simbach. In addition, a pair of express trains from Munich to Bad Aussee stopped in Neuötting in the summer of 1938 and 1939 .

After the Second World War, the number of trains increased: In the 1951/52 timetable Neuötting was served by eight pairs of trains, four of which went to Munich, the rest only to Mühldorf. In the 1960s, the Deutsche Bundesbahn stopped the connections to Munich; In the 1966/67 winter timetable, eight pairs of trains stopped between Mühldorf and Simbach on weekdays. From 1978 a pair of continuous express trains stopped in Simbach again between Munich and Simbach. Since 2002 the Südostbayernbahn has served the station every hour with regional trains from Mühldorf to Simbach; two pairs of trains run through to Munich during rush hour.

Freight transport

In the first years of operation, the Bavarian State Railways carried out freight transport in Neuötting with through express and groupage trains between Munich and Simbach. From the beginning, the station was of great importance, especially in general cargo and wagonload traffic as well as in loading coal. In the operating year 1884, 9907 tons of goods left Neuötting and 9700 tons of goods arrived, which significantly exceeded all other intermediate stations on the route. Neuötting, on the other hand, had a lower volume of animal dispatch than the neighboring stations of Mühldorf and Marktl . In the following years, freight traffic increased further; in the year of operation 1896 50,406 tons of goods were finally loaded. With the decrease in traffic due to the opening of the Mühldorf – Burghausen local railway, the volume of goods fell to 35,238 tonnes by 1899 and thus lagged behind the Mühldorf and Marktl stations.

During the operating time several private sidings were set up at the station, which branched off from the freight tracks in the southwest and from the northern siding. In 1934 the Deutsche Reichsbahn stationed its own small locomotive at Neuötting station for shunting work . After the dismantling to the stop, the Deutsche Bundesbahn served the remaining siding in Neuötting with transfer trains from the Mühldorf station. Since the last siding was closed, Neuötting is no longer served by freight traffic.
