The Oberhausen-Sterkrade station is in the middle of the Oberhausen district Sterkrade at the Holland route Oberhausen - Arnhem . It is the second most important passenger station after the main train station and an important link between bus and train in the city.
Location and structure
Oberhausen-Sterkrade station is an operating point on the VzG routes 2206 ( Wanne-Eickel Hbf - Oberhausen-Sterkrade) and 2270 ( Oberhausen Hbf - Emmerich Grenz [- Arnhem ]). The neighboring train stations in the south direction are Oberhausen Hbf (VzG route 2270) and Oberhausen-Osterfeld (VzG route 2206), to the north the Oberhausen-Holten stop and Dinslaken train station follow .
The station has six main tracks , which run roughly in a south-north direction. Track 1 (to Emmerich) and 2 (from Emmerich) are the continuous main tracks. Track 3 serves as a passing track. Track 4 is used for connecting trips to Oxea . Tracks 8 and 9 on the east side are intended for storage, a previously existing track connection to the GHH Radsatz plant is no longer served. The station building is located east of platform 1. The station is equipped with a house platform on platform 1 (172 meters long) and a central platform on platform 2/3 (222 meters long). With the exception of a short raised area on platform 1, the platforms are 38 centimeters high. Within the station boundaries, Rosastraße crosses the tracks in the direction of Oberhausen Hbf.
The train station has two exits: the western one leads to the park-and-ride car park on Neumühler Strasse in the Schwarze Heide district and the eastern one leads directly to Sterkrad city center. The exits can be reached via small ramps on the stairs, but the central platform can only be reached via stairs, so that the station is not barrier-free.
history
The opening of the station took place with the commissioning of the Oberhausen - Dinslaken section on July 1, 1856. The builder and operator was the Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (CME), nationalized in 1880 . On November 15, 1873, the CME opened the line between Schalke and Sterkrade as part of the later Emschertal Railway . At first only used by freight trains , from July 1, 1874 passenger trains also ran there. A year later, on July 1, 1875, the section to Ruhrort was completed. On October 15, 1875, passenger traffic to Ruhrort started. Through trains still had to build the link from Osterfeld to Neumühl 1878 in Sterkrade head making .
In 1888 the station building was moved from Köln-Kalk to Sterkrade. 82 percent of the building was destroyed in World War II. From November 1945 to May 1948, passenger and freight trains ran from Sterkrade over the track network of the Gutehoffnungshütte to Walsum and on over the Walsumbahn to Spellen . The section in question was no longer connected to the rest of the route network as two bridges were blown up. The draft for the new building of the reception building was available in December 1950. The counter hall protruding over both floors was located in the left part of the building, the middle part comprised the station restaurant and service rooms, the baggage handling area was housed in a flat extension. Construction was approved on January 4, 1951 and completed the following year.
In 1973, the Osf relay interlocking went into operation in an extension on the ground floor . It replaced three older mechanical signal boxes . In June 2013 the station was connected to the Emmerich ESTW .
future
As part of the expansion of the Holland route, the station is to be extensively rebuilt. To the south of the station, two new tracks will be built along the existing line, the connecting curve to Oberhausen-Osterfeld is to be expanded to double-track freight traffic. The threading of the freight tracks is to take place north of the station. The Rosastraße level crossing is to be replaced by an overpass . Instead of the existing platforms, two central platforms with a height of 76 centimeters are planned. Access should be guaranteed barrier-free by ramps at the exits and lift systems to the platforms.
Plans for a new Essen – Oberhausen tram route were well advanced in the 2010s. After a no in the council's decision on March 8, 2015, they were postponed. The operating concept for line 105 envisaged a new line from Essen-Frintrop to the Oberhausen public transport route and on this alternate service to Oberhausen Hauptbahnhof and Sterkrade Bahnhof. The extension of tram line 105 from Essen-Frintrop to Centr O was then again included in the public transport requirement plan of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, which applies from 2017 to 2030, at the instigation of the cities of Essen and Oberhausen. This would make it possible to realize the tram connection between Essen and Oberhausen in the period up to 2030.
