Railway stations in North Rhine-Westphalia

The Siegburg / Bonn train station is located in Siegburg on the high-speed line Cologne – Rhine / Main , the Sieg line and the Siegburg – Olpe line . Its name, which has been valid since 2002, is due to the fact that it was expanded as a train station for Bonn on the high-speed route Cologne – Rhine / Main . The compound of Bonn main station is through the rail track Siegburger web produced (line 66) in tight stroke.

The station is in the area of ​​the Rhein-Sieg transport association (VRS). The operating points abbreviation is ALIb (former Bundesbahndirektion K PEP, station Si ec b urg).

history

Station building (track side)

The then Siegburg train station was opened in 1859 as a train station on the Sieg line. Around 1870 Siegburg was to become the northern end point of the right Rhine route , which was later to be continued through the Aggertal into the Ruhr area to Bochum or Essen , making Siegburg an important railway junction . Influential people from Cologne managed to get the right Rhine route over the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Hütte to Troisdorf and there in the direction of Cologne , while after Siegburg there was only a branch route parallel to the Sieg route. This connection was opened in 1872 and closed again in 1884. The terminus of this line, the Rheinische Bahnhof, named after the operator, the Rheinische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft , was located directly next to the station of the Sieglinie, which was operated by the Cologne-Mindener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft , on the site of the later freight station . In the same year the Aggertalbahn was opened via Overath and Dieringhausen to Olpe , which lost its importance from 1910 with the opening of the direct connection Cologne – Overath and has not been used for passenger traffic since 1954 . In 1897, the narrow-gauge Brölthaler Eisenbahn-Actien-Gesellschaft built its own train station south of the Siegburg train station, which was closed in 1955. In 1911 the Siegburger Bahn was opened, which is now operated as a light rail line. In 1914 the Siegburg – Zündorf small railway was put into operation, but in 1963 the Siegburg – Troisdorf section was also shut down.

In 1989 the federal government decided to run the new Cologne – Rhein / Main line continuously to the right of the Rhine . Intermediate stops were planned - in addition to Cologne / Bonn Airport , the Limburg area, Mainz , Wiesbaden and Frankfurt Airport - in Bonn- Vilich or Siegburg.

At the beginning of 1995 the city carried out an urban planning ideas competition for the station area.

On May 13, 1997, the symbolic start of construction of the new Cologne – Rhine / Main line in North Rhine-Westphalia was celebrated at Siegburg station : The North Rhine-Westphalian Minister of Economics Wolfgang Clement , Federal Minister of Transport Matthias Wissmann and Railway Director Heinz Dürr put three levers out of the lever bank of a mechanical interlocking around. As part of the ceremony, an ICE drove to Siegburg station for the first time ; Guests of honor and 500 other travelers were drawn as part of a special trip on the ICE 2 via Cologne and Düsseldorf to Oberhausen and back.

At the turn of the year 1996/1997, lot 23 of the new line was awarded for the 3.3 km long area, which is mainly located in the urban area of ​​Siegburg. For around 40 million DM , two continuous high-speed tracks were to be built, platforms to be rebuilt and adapted, and bridges to be rebuilt and rebuilt.

In the course of the construction of the high-speed line between Cologne and Rhine / Main , the old reception building was demolished in 2000 and replaced by a new building that went into operation at the end of September 2004. There were also urban changes in the area around the station.

In particular, the old station building had to give way to the new Siegburger Bahn route . For the new building, the city and Deutsche Bahn announced an urban design ideas competition.

On June 25, 2001, representatives of Deutsche Bahn and the city of Siegburg signed a framework agreement for the renovation of the station. The construction contract was awarded four days later. The opening was planned for the third quarter of 2002. Of the 3,000 square meters of floor space, 1,200 square meters were earmarked for retail and other services. In addition, two new tracks each for passing and stopping ICE were laid. The through tracks can be driven on at 200 km / h, the entry and exit of the two ICE platform tracks takes place at 100 km / h.

On July 26, 2002, one day after the opening run, Siegburg was an intermediate stop on an ICE-3 parallel run from Frankfurt via Siegburg to Montabaur . About 500 people who had worked on the project got on in Siegburg.

When the new line went into full operation on December 15, 2002, the station was renamed "Siegburg / Bonn". This indicates that this station is the connection from Bonn to the high-speed line, because since the new line was integrated into the ICE network, the majority of long-distance trains between the Rhine-Main area and Cologne no longer run via Bonn main station .

The light rail line of the Siegburger Bahn, which previously ended in the forecourt , was led via a ramp directly into the new basement of the station. The underground end point received two elevated platforms. From there, the tracks for long-distance and regional traffic can be reached via stairs and elevators. The departure times of the light rail trains are already displayed on the information boards in the entrance area of ​​the station. On the wall behind the tram track, the painter and sculptor Hans-Günther van Look created the installation Großer Lichthorizont - Siegburg 2005 as art in architecture , which consists of glass panels in various formats with a reverse glass painting over a length of 50 meters.

Today the station has six tracks: two platform-less through tracks of the high-speed line and four platform edges (one central platform and two outer platforms ). The 400 m long ICE platforms are roofed over 300 m in length. ICE trains in the direction of Cologne as well as regional and S-Bahn trains in the direction of Hennef (Sieg) stop at the central platform . The regional and S-Bahn platform in the direction of Cologne is 210 m long.

As of 2003, two machines of the 226 series were stationed as tow locomotives at Siegburg / Bonn station. These locomotives were later withdrawn.

Before the station opened, Deutsche Bahn had asked for 100 parking spaces. 500 parking spaces were available for commissioning. Next to the train station is a multi-storey car park with 730 parking spaces (as of 2014). The number of parking spaces at the train station is to be increased from the current (as of February 2011) around 1000 to around 1500 with the construction of a new multi-storey car park.

After some of the ICE trains stopping at the station were switched from ICE 3 to ICE 4 with a 50 km / h lower maximum speed in the late 2010s, some of the traffic stops in Siegburg were canceled. After procuring a further 30 new units for 300 km / h, a reintroduction of the stops is expected.
