The Seelow-Gusow station is a through station in the municipality of Gusow-Platkow in the Märkisch-Oderland district . It is the train station for the town of Gusow and also for the town of Seelow, about four kilometers away .

location

The station is located at route kilometer  63.5 of the Ostbahn in the Gusow district of the Gusow-Platkow municipality, a little over a kilometer south of the Gusow town center. The center of the city of Seelow is four kilometers further south. The next station to the east is Werbig train station, four kilometers away . The Alt Rosenthal stop is about five kilometers to the west. The station is adjacent to Am Bahnhof and Bundesstraße 167 . It is part of the Berlin-Brandenburg Transport Association (VBB).

history

The station went into operation on October 1, 1866 under the name Gusow as the provisional end point of the line from Küstrin. Exactly one year later, the continuation of the line to Berlin was opened, with which the Ostbahn was completed throughout. In the mid-1990s it was renamed Seelow-Gusow . There are buses connecting some trains between the train station and Seelow, four kilometers away.

Various technical systems were newly installed in 2009. Around June 2011, parking and bicycle parking spaces, a passenger shelter on the platform, a guidance system for the blind and a bus stop followed. The buses that stop there connect the train station with the inner city of Seelow when the trains leave. The total cost was 900,600 euros. Of this, 650,600 euros were financed by the state of Brandenburg . An inauguration ceremony took place on October 29, 2011.

Platforms and tracks

The station originally had three main tracks and one side track. Platforms were on track 1 (house platform ) and track 2 ( intermediate platform ) , track 3 was used to cross or overhaul freight trains . The loading route was connected to track 4. After the Second World War, the second track of the Eastern Railway was dismantled as a reparation payment , which also affected track 2 in Gusow station. West of the station was a siding to a grain silo . The western exit to Berlin was later given back its second track.

After the last renovation in 2008/09, passenger trains can once again cross as planned. The previous house platform on track 1 was divided into a western and an eastern part (tracks 1a and 1b). Both platforms are each 100 meters long and have a platform height of 55 centimeters. The track systems were reduced to a total of three tracks. Trains to Berlin stop at western platform 1a as planned, trains to Kostrzyn run through the partially rebuilt platform 2 and then stop at platform 1b. Track 3 is still used for the overhaul of other trains.

Reception building

On the north side of the track system is the former station building from the time the line was built, most of which is no longer used today. The classicistic brick building is considered an “imposing historical station building”.

Signal boxes

Former signal box B1, 2015

The station was equipped with up to three signal boxes. At the west and east head there were two signal boxes (W1 and W3), the dispatcher was on duty in command post B2 in the reception building. This was abandoned between 1962 and 1967, the command signal box was now the signal box at Ostkopf (B2, formerly W3). After 1978, the Reichsbahn also gave up the other two signal boxes and replaced them with an electromechanical signal box of the type E12 / 78 west of the level crossing at the Ostkopf. The signal box is considered "structural evidence of GDR modernism". In 2009 the station was connected to the ESTW in Küstrin-Kietz .

Other plants

On the opposite side of the reception building is the former goods shed on a 700 meter long loading street. There were also scales west of the goods shed. The shed was demolished in October 2010.

About 100 meters further east there is a level crossing over which the federal highway 167 runs, which leads to Seelow and Wriezen .

traffic

The station is served hourly by the regional train line RB26, which provides a direct connection to Berlin and Kostrzyn nad Odrą . The line has been operated by the Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn since December 2006 .
