The Nierstein station is the station of the Rhine-Hessian city ​​of Nierstein on the Mainz – Mannheim line . The category 5 double-track station is located near the banks of the Rhine and is managed by Mainz station management.

history

The Hessian Ludwigsbahn opened the Mainz - Oppenheim section of the then single-track Mainz – Mannheim line and thus also the Nierstein station on March 23, 1853.

On November 1, 1900, the branch line popularly known as “Valtinche” was opened to Undenheim-Köngernheim in the Rhineland-Hesse hinterland. As a result, Nierstein station became a separation station . After the abandonment of passenger traffic on the line to Undenheim-Köngernheim in 1951, the line was completely dismantled in 1960. Today the route in Nierstein is a green strip with a sidewalk along the ring road, further in the hinterland a cycle path.

Simultaneously with the opening of the branch line , a port railway leading from Nierstein station to the banks of the Rhine was opened. From this line, which has now been closed, there are still some remains of track.

In 2014, as part of the second expansion stage of the Rhein-Neckar S-Bahn and the integration of the Mainz – Ludwigshafen line into the S-Bahn network, the modernization of Nierstein station began. The two outer platforms were raised to the usual height of 76 centimeters for the vehicles used by the RheinNeckar S-Bahn and the entrances were made completely barrier-free . Since then, it has been possible for wheelchair users and prams to board the S-Bahn without any problems. All renovation work for the RheinNeckar S-Bahn was completed at the end of 2015.

For the regular summer timetable change on June 10, 2018, the new line S 6 of the S-Bahn RheinNeckar went into operation. This line replaced the previously for suburban forward operation circulating regional train -line RB 44th

On the morning of December 17, 2018, a new electronic signal box was built in the neighboring Oppenheim station , which has since been controlling the free routes and stations between the Mainz-Weisenau Gbf and Guntersblum stations .

Investments

There is a siding to the south of the platforms.

Reception building

The reception building of Nierstein corresponded to the standardized Every system works , the Ignaz victims husband had built in most stations along the route. It was later significantly expanded and rebuilt. The reason could have been the connection of the Nierstein – Undenheim-Köngernheim railway line . Today the station building is no longer used for railway operations.
