The Niebüll (DB) railway station is one of two passenger stations in the eponymous town of Niebüll . It is located on the Marschbahn and connects trains from Hamburg-Altona to Westerland on Sylt . It was opened in 1887 as part of the expansion of the march track and is now classified as station category 3 by Deutsche Bahn .

business

The station is a railway junction . In addition to the passenger train connections on the Marschbahn, trains also run from here via the branching railway line Niebüll – Tondern (federal border) to nearby Tønder and beyond that also continuously to and from Esbjerg . This route represents (until the construction of the Hindenburgdamm ) the original course of the march railway route .

There is also a connection to Niebüll (neg) station on the Niebüll – Dagebüll railway line . The two last-mentioned lines are now owned by the North German Railway Company Niebüll (neg) as a railway infrastructure company .

A large part of the train connections has been provided again by the Schleswig-Holstein regional train since December 2016 . The DB Regio Bahn Nord subsidiary, which belongs to the Deutsche Bahn Group , replaced the Nord-Ostsee-Bahn , which had previously operated since 2005 , when the timetable changed .

Individual Deutsche Bahn intercity train pairs also stop in Niebüll. Some of them have through coaches with them in summer , which are relocated to the Niebüll – Dagebüll route in Niebüll, thus saving passengers from and to Dagebüll Mole (ferry station for the islands of Föhr and Amrum ) having to change trains in Niebüll.

Railway stations and tracks

Two trains in Niebüll station, 2007

In addition to the reception building and the water tower from 1887, two historical mechanical signal boxes from 1920 have been preserved. The station has several tracks, but only four of them are accessible via a platform (as of 2016). The signs in the facility are bilingual (German: Niebüll , Frisian : Naibel ). Other tracks are primarily used for car train traffic from the loading terminal of car train traffic Niebüll – Westerland, which is adjacent to the south .

The passenger trains run as follows:

  • Track 1: Long-distance and regional trains from and to Westerland (Sylt) , trains from and to Dagebüll , to be connected by through coaches (on track 1 there is also the platform edge of the house platform from the construction period of the line - shown on the right in Figure 1 - but this is no longer accessible to passengers). Train journeys are also possible to and from Husum .
  • Track 2: Long-distance and regional trains from Westerland to Husum, trains from and to Dagebüll
  • Track 3: Long-distance and regional trains from Husum to Westerland
  • Track 4: regional trains to and from Denmark . Train journeys are possible from and to Husum and from and to Westerland.

The house platform visible in the picture was used for border clearance of trains traveling to / from Denmark until 1981.

The water tower north of the reception building dates back to 1906. After plans had already been made to demolish this tower, local craftsmen initiated a project to save the tower. During the restoration work, they trained their offspring here, who should restore the historical state in a half-timbered construction.

history

Until the timetable change in 1981, there were also train connections from this station on the Niebüll – Flensburg route . Since then, the line branching off in Lindholm has only been used rarely, in the 2010s only in parts as a trolley line . However, there is regular speculation and, in some cases, concrete efforts to resume the transport of people and goods on this east-west route.

Further Niebüller train stations

On the other side of the forecourt of the DB station is the Niebüll neg station . It is the starting station for rail traffic on the Niebüll – Dagebüll small railway and is now part of the infrastructure of the North German Railway Company Niebüll . From the terminus of the route, the Dagebüll Mole Station , there are ferry connections to the islands of Foehr and Amrum . The transition from Niebüll (DB) station is via a saw drive  - in the aerial photo from the left track 1 to the pull-out track at the top left of the line towards Westerland - and back west (left) past the Nf interlocking onto the line to Dagebüll.

The neg station was built in 1895 with the originally meter- gauge Niebüll – Dagebüll small railway . The company's central depot is located adjacent to the grounds of the neg train station. In addition to several control tracks, the railway operations facilities include a locomotive shed with a workshop for their vehicles. It was not until 1928 that a pull-out track was created as an extension from the train station to the march line for the exchange of through wagons and other rail vehicles with the main line, in order to change the gauge of the small railroad to standard gauge , on which transfer journeys as sawing journeys are possible, where the road accesses to the station forecourt are crossed with a flag.
