In freight transport by rail, not only general cargo but also express cargo could be sent and received at Jügesheim station . As express goods were u. a. Daily newspapers, mail items, medicines for the pharmacy and film copies for the cinemas are delivered. The local leather goods industry used express freight to ship their goods; Most of the raw materials, however, came to Jügesheim as general cargo. In wagonload were delivered, among others, coal, seed potatoes, fertilizer and fuel oil; Mine wood was sent to the Ruhr in the emptied coal wagons until the 1950s . Companies from Messel, Dieburg and Babenhausen used the Jügesheim station for international traffic, as it was included in the ECSC tariff of the European Coal and Steel Community. Goods handling was given up before 2000.

As part of the expansion of the S-Bahn, the line was expanded to two tracks and electrified between 2001 and 2003. The station was redesigned to be barrier-free and received two side platforms. The eastern platform - towards Frankfurt - is partially covered. The platforms are connected by an underpass that can be reached via stairs and a ramp. The freight transport facilities and side tracks have been removed. The station has been downgraded to the stopping point.

The S-Bahn line S1 ( Wiesbaden Hauptbahnhof –Rödermark Ober-Roden) of the S-Bahn Rhein-Main has been running on the Rodgaubahn since December 2003 .
