The Seddin Station is a train station in Neuseddin , a district of Brandenburg Municipality Seddiner See . It is one of the most important marshalling yards of DB Netz AG in Eastern Germany and is one of the nine large train formation facilities of DB Cargo AG in Germany.
The facility also includes a passenger station on the Berlin – Blankenheim railway line .
history
At the beginning of the 20th century, the capacities of Berlin's train stations were nowhere near sufficient for the growing freight and military traffic. In the south and west of Berlin, the bypass railway was built at the beginning of the 20th century , which should provide relief. In connection with the construction of this line, the Wustermark marshalling yard was built in the west of Berlin . A marshalling yard was also built in the southwest of Berlin between 1912 and 1919 on the Berlin – Blankenheim line near the intersection with the bypass railway. The Seddin passenger stop was opened on February 2, 1914 at the start of construction. The opening of the marshalling yard was delayed until the 1920s due to the First World War . The International Railway Technical Exhibition , organized by the Deutsche Reichsbahn , took place here from September 21 to October 5, 1924 , during which the marshalling yard was named Seddin and officially went into operation.
As part of the expansion of the station, the Neuseddin railway settlement was built east of the station . In the course of the 1920s, another section of the bypass line went into operation, which connects the marshalling yard with the Anhalter Bahn near Großbeeren .
To expand the station, a second station system was to be built alongside the north system. In 1939 the work was stopped and instead a military station for the Wehrmacht was built from 1939 to 1941 parallel to the marshalling yard . On July 7, 1943, the so-called Seddin War Train Parade took place in the station . At the end of the Second World War , the station was badly hit in a bombardment on April 20, 1945. After the end of the war there was further destruction in June of the same year as a result of a series of explosions during the ammunition recovery, with the large reloading hall and the service building of the station being destroyed. The station was rebuilt.
The former military station was expanded into a transit station in 1958/59, in which the freight trains that crossed the GDR area were handled . Since 1967, the station's facilities have been extensively modernized and operations have been partially automated. In July 1980 the Sed central signal box went into operation. In addition to its role in transit goods traffic, the station was also important for local goods traffic to the industrial areas in Potsdam / Rehbrücke and Teltow .
After the political change in the GDR and German reunification , the transit station had become superfluous and since 1993 it has been used for local goods traffic.
In 2004, an electronic signal box went into operation in Michendorf , which also controls the main tracks at Seddin station.
By the end of 2014 [obsolete] the track braking technology in the marshalling yard will be renewed. To this end, 47 million euros are being invested. Furthermore, the conveyor systems, the track field lighting and numerous points will be renewed.
Investments
Shunting yard and depot
The marshalling yard extends over a total of around five kilometers and is 300 meters wide. It comprises 28 + 15 directional tracks with a track length of around 100 km and three drainage mountains. The entry group comprises ten tracks and the exit group six tracks. Originally, the station was designed as a two-sided marshalling yard with today's northern system. In 1958, the southern system was originally opened for transit traffic and traffic to West Berlin . Since then, the station has consisted of two separate station systems with no corner traffic. The southern system has an entry group, a combined direction and exit group and, during GDR times, a special control group. The north system consists of an approach group, a direction group and an exit group. Up to 1800 wagons per day can be handled in the marshalling yard; the average daily mountain performance is currently 1500 wagons.
The central signal box consists of a nine-story building. A GS III Sp 68 track diagram interlocking is housed here, from which the neighboring stations in Michendorf and Beelitz-Heilstätten were also remotely controlled. Planning during the construction provided for the Caputh-Geltow and Ferch-Lienewitz stations to be served from there. After the central interlocking went into operation, the three marshalling interlockings east (in the central interlocking building), west and south were still in operation.
The Seddin depot, founded in 1925, is located on the site of the station, in the southern area . Up to 20 locomotives and 60 wagons are currently being repaired here every day. A coal loading bridge in the depot is a listed building .
A 51-meter-high octagonal water tower in the station area has also been under monument protection since 1993 . In the head of the tower there were two tanks with a capacity of 600 cubic meters each, which were supplied from six wells between 80 and 110 meters deep. The tower, which was renovated in 1975, was demolished at the end of 2004 due to a lack of stability. Federal funding would have been possible for the renovation of the tower, but no meaningful use of the building between the railway tracks was foreseeable. The street name Weg zum Wasserturm is reminiscent of the tower .
Passenger station
The station has a passenger stop with two outside platforms on the Berlin – Blankenheim line . Originally there was another platform next to it, which was used by the trains to Beelitz Stadt that ran until the early 1970s . During the renovation of the railway systems, the platform was removed, the trains from Michendorf to Beelitz Stadt now run through the southeastern part of the station and do not stop in Seddin.
A barrier-free renovation is planned from 2021 , with each platform receiving an elevator. The front building is to be demolished. At the same time, the municipality of Seddiner See is planning to redesign the station forecourt from 2020. New bus stops and bicycle parking spaces are being built, and the number of parking spaces is to increase from 19 to around 100.
