The Ueckermünde station was originally the end point of the Jatznick – Ueckermünde railway in the port town of the same name, southeast of the city center. Since 2009 the trains have continued to use a former port siding. There the two new stops Ueckermünde at the bus station and Ueckermünde city port near the old town and directly at the city port were built. The old Ueckermünde train station was abandoned. Its reception building and some outbuildings are listed.
history
The station at the route kilometer 162.3 (the kilometrage begins in Berlin ) was opened on September 15, 1884 along with the entire route. A connecting line to the port of Ueckermünde was built from the station in a north-westerly direction. In 1952, the first female service head of the Deutsche Reichsbahn worked at Ueckermünder Bahnhof .
Expansion of passenger traffic with a new stop from 2009
In 2009, passenger traffic was started on the connecting line to the port with the new terminal stop in Ueckermünde Stadthafen . The old station was closed, a new Ueckermünde stop was built about 700 meters northwest of it at kilometer 163.0. The simple platform without a building is on the northeast side of the track between the Ueckerstraße and Strandweg level crossings , each of which has an entrance. This means that the new stop is much closer to the city center than the old train station. To the east of the new stop, a bus station was built , where the regional bus routes , including those in the direction of Ferdinandshof , run. Like the train stop, the bus stops are barrier-free and provided with guide strips for the blind .
The new stop was operated by multiple units of Ostseeland Verkehr until the timetable change in mid-December 2013 , and since then those of DB Regio .
Layout of the (old) train station
The reception building is a one-storey and two-storey building consisting of several parts with tile-covered saddle and hip roofs and a partially expanded attic. It has two gables on the long side, the left one with a central risalit . The station building as well as the engine shed , water tower and the railroad workers' houses in Eggesiner Strasse 8 and 10 are listed as historical monuments . The building was put up for auction in April 2013.
service
The line and the two Ueckermünder stops are served by line RE 4 (city gate line). The trains commute between Pasewalk and Ueckermünde every two hours , and there are also some booster trains during rush hour . The connection of the trains beyond Pasewalk in the direction of Neubrandenburg and Bützow was given up in 2014, since then you have to change trains in Pasewalk. Only a few commuter trains continue from Ueckermünde directly to Neubrandenburg and Bützow.
