It belongs to the station category 7 of the Deutsche Bahn AG (DB) and has a platform track .

As part of a transitional tariff, cards of the Rhine-Neckar Transport Association (VRN) are also recognized. His address is Bahnhofstrasse 12 .

The station is on the Wörth – Strasbourg line and was opened on July 25, 1876. In 1984 passenger traffic was discontinued in the section immediately south of Wörth. In 2002, however, this was reactivated. In operational terms, the former train station is now just a simple stop .

location

The station is located on the northwestern outskirts of Neuburg am Rhein. Immediately to the east, the local Bahnhofstrasse runs parallel to the railway line . To the north, Waldstrasse crosses the same level route, which merges directly to the east into Bahnhofstrasse. In a westerly direction it leads to an industrial park . The southern part of the Neuburger Altrhein nature reserve joins this area .

history

The original plan was to first open a north-south railway line within the Palatinate (Bavaria) from Mannheim's Rheinschanze via Lauterbourg to Strasbourg , which should compete with the Mannheim – Basel line planned by Baden . However, this was postponed in favor of the Palatinate Ludwigshafen - Bexbach, which opened between 1847 and 1849 . In the period that followed, discussions took place as to whether a route along the mountains from Neustadt via Landau to Wissembourg or a route along the Rhine via Speyer , Germersheim and Wörth was more urgent and desirable. Since the military in particular preferred a route on the edge of the Palatinate Forest , one in the form of the Maximiliansbahn Neustadt - Wissembourg was preferred. After the Franco-Prussian War , France had to cede neighboring Alsace and northern Lorraine to the newly founded German Empire . This spurred plans to tie the Schifferstadt – Germersheim railway through to Wörth and from there to create a continuation via Neuburg and Lauterburg to Strasbourg. On July 25, 1876, the line and thus the Neuburg station was opened.

At the beginning of the 20th century, like all other stations in the Palatinate, the station received platform closures. During this time, the station was managed by the Ludwigshafen Operations and Building Inspectorate and was part of the Wörth railway maintenance department . After Germany lost the First World War and the French military marched in, the Palatinate route network south of Maikammer-Kirrweiler and Speyer was closed to passenger traffic on December 1, 1918, but was reopened three days later. In 1922 the station was assigned to the newly established Ludwigshafen Reich Railway Directorate . A year later employed at the station railway workers were the carried out in the course of France, to 1924 permanent director operation reported. Then they returned.

In the course of the gradual dissolution of the Reichsbahndirektion Ludwigshafen, the station changed to the Karlsruhe directorate on February 1, 1937. The German Federal Railways was divided the station after the Second World War in the Bundesbahndirektion Mainz one, they all railway lines within the newly created state of Rhineland-Palatinate allotted. In 1971, when the Mainz directorate was dissolved, the station came under the jurisdiction of its Karlsruhe counterpart. At the same time, the platform barriers were lifted.

On June 1, 1984, passenger traffic between Wörth and Lauterbourg was discontinued. In the following years the station lost its second track; As a result, it was also dismantled to the stopping point . Likewise came freight to a standstill; Most recently it was handled from Wörth. However, it was reactivated at the end of 2002. At the same time, the former train station and now the stop became part of the Karlsruhe Transport Association (KVV). The tariff of the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Neckar (VRN) is also recognized.

Buildings

Reception building

Reception building

The former station building , which was built around 1870, is a so-called “type building” made of brick. Stylistically it can be assigned to the so-called late classicism. It dates from when the train station was opened and is a listed building . After the temporary cessation of passenger traffic in 1984, it was sold; Since then it has no longer been of any significance for rail operations. It now serves as a residential building .

investment

Since the reactivation, the stop has a 120 meter long platform with a boarding height of 55 centimeters. The facility also includes parking spaces and bicycle parking spaces.

traffic

Immediately before the cessation of passenger traffic in 1984, passenger traffic in the southern direction ran exclusively to Berg (Palatinate) . Since the reactivation, trains on the Wörth - Lauterbourg route have been running every hour . These are listed under the line number R 52 . These trains are marketed as "Bienwaldbahn". Traffic starts at 5:38 a.m. on weekdays, at 7:10 a.m. on Saturdays and at 8:29 a.m. on Sundays and public holidays. On Sundays there is a continuous connection from Karlsruhe via Wörth to Lauterbourg.
