The Neu-Ulm station is the largest station of the Bavarian district town of Neu-Ulm . There is also the Gerlenhofen train station and the Finninger Straße stop in Neu-Ulm , both of which are located on the Illertalbahn , and the Burlafingen stop on the Augsburg – Ulm line , which was closed in 1987 .
The station, which opened in 1853, was relocated to an open trough structure by 2007 as part of the Neu-Ulm 21 project , which is covered to the northeast and southwest of the platforms .
It has four tracks and is served daily by around 120 Deutsche Bahn and agilis trains. The local trains stopping at the station are part of the Donau-Iller local transport network (DING).
location
Neu-Ulm train station is located southeast of the city center of Neu-Ulm. Bahnhofstrasse runs to the north-west of the station and Meininger Allee to the south-east. In the south-west are the reception building and the bus station , which is called the central transfer point (ZUP), and Hermann-Köhl-Strasse crosses the tracks here. In the northeast is the parking lot of the train station , here the state road 2029 crosses the tracks as Reuttier Straße. The bus station and parking lot are located on the trough structure, which is covered at these points. The station is at Julius-Rohm-Platz 1 .
history
On May 4, 1851, the Bavarian state passed the law to build the Bavarian Maximiliansbahn , which was to run from Ulm via Augsburg to Munich . In March 1852, construction work began on the railway bridge over the Danube between Ulm and Neu-Ulm. On December 25, 1853, the first train arrived at Neu-Ulm station. On September 26th, it was officially opened together with the Neu-Ulm– Burgau section of the Bavarian Maximiliansbahn. Since the Danube bridge was not yet completed, a horse-drawn cab initially ran between Neu-Ulm station and Ulm station, which opened in 1850 . The Neu-Ulm station building was completed on December 1, 1853. On May 1, 1854, the two-track Danube bridge was finally completed, whereupon the Royal Bavarian State Railways opened the entire Maximiliansbahn route from Ulm to Munich on June 1, 1854. It was served by four trains a day in each direction. At the end of 1856 the line between Ulm and Neu-Ulm was expanded to two tracks.
On October 12, 1862, the Bavarian State Railroad opened the Illertalbahn from Neu-Ulm to Memmingen , which ran four trains a day. It was extended to Kempten (Allgäu) until June 1, 1863 . Some renovations were carried out by 1869 and in 1872 the station was equipped with gas lighting. On February 15, 1871, the Bavarian State Railways opened the Neu-Ulm depot . By September 1874, as part of the expansion of the station complex, a new station building in the Renaissance style was built, designed by the Bavarian architect Friedrich Bürklein . In March 1892, the double-track expansion of the Maximiliansbahn between Neu-Ulm and Augsburg was completed, so that the entire route from Stuttgart via Ulm to Munich was now double-tracked.
From 1877 a line of the Ulm tram stopped at Neu-Ulm station, which was discontinued in 1944. From 1931 to 1933 the Maximiliansbahn was electrified from Ulm to Augsburg, so that the Deutsche Reichsbahn could start electrical operation on April 25, 1933. From May 5, 1933, the entire route from Stuttgart to Munich was electrically accessible.
During the Second World War , the first air raid on Neu-Ulm train station took place on March 16, 1944. On March 1, 1945, the goods handling , signal box II and some other buildings in Neu-Ulm were destroyed in an air raid . On March 4, the station building and the depot were also destroyed. On April 24, 1945, when the US troops marched in, the railway bridge over the Danube between Ulm and Neu-Ulm was blown up. After a wooden makeshift bridge had been built in May 1945 to replace the destroyed Danube bridge, electrical train operations between Ulm and Neu-Ulm were resumed on June 29, 1945. After the war, several barracks were built to replace the station building. In 1953, the Bavarian State Parliament decided to rebuild, which began in 1955. The building designed by Walter Fasching was put into operation on November 23, 1957. The glazed reception hall was framed by a two-storey component with a train station restaurant and service rooms on the left and the single-storey express goods processing facility on the right. The building was supposed to form the representative southern end of Ludwigstrasse; the desired effect was only partially achieved due to the asymmetrical arrangement of the reception hall. The Kibri company produced a kit of this station in nominal size H0 . In 1960 the reconstruction of the platform roofs was completed. In 2000, Deutsche Bahn closed ticket issuance and replaced it with ticket machines.
In the course of the Neu-Ulm 21 project , the railway system was fundamentally reorganized by 2007. The five-track above-ground station was relocated together with the adjacent railway lines in an open trough and the number of tracks was reduced to four. The underground station went into operation on March 18, 2007.
At the end of March 2007, the second track at the Finninger Strasse stop in Neu-Ulm went into operation, which largely curbs the delays due to waiting trains from Memmingen or in the direction of Memmingen. In April 2007 the old station building was torn down. The transport project was completed in November 2007 and the facilities went into operation in December.

Platforms and track systems
Neu-Ulm station has four tracks on two central platforms . Both platforms are covered and have digital train destination displays . The platforms are connected to the surface by stairs and elevators and are therefore barrier-free . Tracks 1 and 2 are used by the trains on the Augsburg – Ulm line, tracks 3 and 4 are used by the trains of the Illertalbahn. A slab track is used in the tunnel .
| track | Length in m | Height in cm | use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 255 | 55 | Trains on the Augsburg – Ulm line in the direction of Ulm |
| 2 | 243 | 55 | Trains on the Augsburg – Ulm line in the direction of Augsburg and Donauwörth |
| 3 | 243 | 55 | Trains of the Illertalbahn in the direction of Ulm |
| 4th | 255 | 55 | Trains of the Illertalbahn in the direction of Memmingen and Weißenhorn |
Depot
On February 15, 1871, Neu-Ulm received its own depot with two round sheds, a water house and a workshop. The locomotives of the Bavarian Maximiliansbahn and the Illertalbahn, for which there was previously a depot at the Ulm train station , were then relocated to Neu-Ulm. A long rectangular hall was built to repair the car. On June 27, 1902, a new 18-meter-long and 120-tonne turntable was put into operation to enable larger steam locomotives to enter. During the Second World War, the depot was badly damaged on March 4, 1945, with 16 steam locomotives also suffering damage, but was given back to its previous duties after the reconstruction. On January 1, 1961, the steam locomotives were relocated to the Ulm depot and the electric locomotives to the Augsburg depot, whereupon the workshop was closed. On September 1, 1965, the depot was finally closed and the technical facilities dismantled. A carriage hall and the administration and social building were preserved and were demolished for Neu-Ulm 21 in 2000.
Signal boxes
Before the Second World War, there were two mechanical signal boxes of the Bruchsal design in Neu-Ulm , which were designated as signal boxes II and III. Signal box II was destroyed in an air raid on March 1, 1945 during World War II. It was rebuilt after the war and was able to resume operations in mid-1946. On January 31, 1965, the mechanical signal box II was replaced by a track plan push button signal box from Siemens of the type 59 (SP Dr S59), which saved 15 manpower positions. In 2004 signal box III was shut down. In the course of Neu-Ulm 21, the track plan push button interlocking was shut down on March 17, 2007 and demolished shortly afterwards. As a replacement, on March 18, 2007, Deutsche Bahn put a Lorenz L90 electronic interlocking into operation in Ulm , from which the Neu-Ulm area is remote-controlled. This signal box initially controlled the two regional tracks; the long-distance tracks were integrated on the night of November 18, 2007.
business
The Augsburg – Ulm railway as part of the Bavarian Maximilians Railway and the Illertal Railway from Neu-Ulm to Kempten run through the station . The track systems of the two lines can be driven on in the platform area at 120 or 100 km / h.
Am Bahnhof Neu-Ulm holds regional express -line Ulm-Munich (Fugger-Express) in every hour with EMUs of 440 series . In addition, individual regional express trains stop relation Ulm- Kempten with diesel railcars of series 612 , the remaining trains to Kempten and Oberstdorf not hold in Neu-Ulm and pass through the station every hour without stopping. In addition, regional trains on the Ulm – Memmingen route stop every hour, and since 2013 regional trains on the Ulm – Weißenhorn route run every hour. These lines are served by class 642 and 644 diesel multiple units. In rush hour traffic, individual trains also run on the Ulm-Illertissen route. Since December 11, 2011, the station has also been served by agilis trains that use Coradia Continental electric multiple units . These run every hour on the Ulm– Ingolstadt (- Regensburg ) line . An Intercity - train pair ( Stuttgart -) Ulm-Munich also holds in Neu-Ulm. In the 2018 timetable year, the station was even an ICE stop.

Bus station
The central transfer point (Neu-Ulm ZUP) is the most important bus station in Neu-Ulm and has eight bus platforms . Bus lines 5 and 7 of the SWU Nahverkehr Ulm / Neu-Ulm , numerous lines from the city and district of Neu-Ulm as well as several long-distance bus lines stop at the ZUP .
The Ulm tram was opened on May 15, 1897, line 2 of which stopped at Neu-Ulm Bahnhofplatz and connected the stations of Ulm and Neu-Ulm. During the Second World War , the route of tram line 2 was damaged in an air raid on December 17, 1944 and operations were stopped. As a replacement, the Ulm trolleybus was set up, whose line 6 ran from Eselsberg via Ulm Central Station and Neu-Ulm Station to Ulm Zundeltor from May 14, 1947 . On October 23, 1963, trolleybus operations were discontinued and replaced by diesel buses.
As part of the Neu-Ulm 21 project, the central transfer point was opened in 2007 and the old bus station on Bahnhofplatz was closed.
