The Wendlingen (Neckar) station is a rail junction at the Neckar-Alb-rail on which the Teck Railway branches. The station is located between Wendlingen and the neighboring town of Köngen and is served by regional trains and the S1 line of the Stuttgart S-Bahn .
history
On September 20, 1859 opened Royal Wuerttemberg state railway route Plochingen - Reutlingen , the first section of the Upper Neckar Railway . As the first stopover after Plochingen, she set up the Unterboihingen train station . That was about 700 meters north of the village.
Since the state could not take the Oberamtsstadt Kirchheim into account, its city councilors tried to get a connection through a private railway company on August 13, 1860. The railway line should run from Unterboihingen to Kirchheim. On August 12, 1863, the Württemberg state parliament approved the construction. The starting point of the eastbound route was at the Hotel Keim, which had a platform. On September 21, 1864 the Kirchheimer Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft was able to start operations. On January 1, 1899, the State Railroad took over the Teckbahn. On October 18, 1899, the State Railroad put a second track into operation on the Neckarbahn section from Plochingen to Unterboihingen.
In 1913 the director of the Behr company, which had been based in Wendlingen for a year, tried to rename the station to Unterboihingen-Wendlingen. The Wendlingen community supported him in this. The State Railway Directorate declined, however, and even pointed out that in the event of a renaming, the greater kings would be called. Furthermore, double names would only be considered in exceptional cases.
After the Württemberg State Railroad had merged into the Deutsche Reichsbahn , the Wendlingen community asked the Reichsbahndirektion Stuttgart to rename it again on April 25, 1921 . In the meantime, Köngen and Wendlingen were almost the same size and the Pfauhausen-Steinbach train station had a double name without any complaints. Again Stuttgart issued a rejection. Again on November 30, 1927, when the Reichsbahndirektion once again mentioned the disadvantage of Köngens.
In 1933 the deputy mayor of Wendlingen contacted the Reich Railway Directorate again. He described the coalescence of Wendlingen and Unterboihingen with a barely recognizable border. In any case, Wendlingen, with around 3,000 inhabitants, is much larger than Unterboihingen, which has 1,100 inhabitants, and thus benefits far more from the railroad.
However, the Reichsbahndirektion did not agree to a name change and instead proposed that the community unite with Unterboihingen. On April 1, 1940, the Gauleitung finally decided to merge Wendlingen, Unterboihingen and Bodelshofen. On this date, the station was given its current name Wendlingen (Neckar) .
After the Second World War, on October 20, 1946, the citizens of Unterboihingen asked the Württemberg-Baden Ministry of the Interior to disband . A dispute that lasted for years ensued. On December 11, 1950, the Ministry of the Interior proposed to compensate for the renaming of the station in Wendlingen-Unterboihingen. In Wendlingen there was little understanding for this. That was not enough for the representatives of Unterboihingen either. Instead, they demanded that the entire village be renamed if independence could no longer be achieved. The mood later calmed down and on December 15, 1964, the Ministry of the Interior granted the municipality town charter.
As early as the 1970s, the Deutsche Bundesbahn planned to continue the S-Bahn from Plochingen to Kirchheim (Teck). However, the implementation took several decades and did not take place until July 23, 2008. Since December 12, 2009 the S-Bahn line S1 has been branching from the Neckar-Alb Railway to the Teckbahn.
outlook
The Stuttgart Region Association decided on April 22, 2020 to commission planning (work phases 1 to 4) to adapt platforms in Wendlingen, which are necessary for an extension of the S-Bahn to Nürtingen.
There are plans to run the Teckbahn around Wendlingen in the future. In a first construction stage, the freight train connection would be used to route it in the portal area of the Albvorland tunnel towards Kirchheim. The S-Bahn track would then pass under the autobahn, drive around Wendlingen in a tunnel to the west and reach the S-Bahn route from the Neckartalbahnhof option in the Speckweg area . In a second construction stage, the direction track from Wendlingen to Kirchheim is to be pulled out of track 3 in the Wendlingen station. In the further course, the Neckar Valley Railway and a roundabout are to be crossed under Wendlingen in a tunnel to the south in order to connect to the track of the 1st construction stage southwest of Wendlingen.
Reception building
The station building from 1859 with its two extensions still exists. The ground floor with the arched windows and doors is made of sandstone. The upper floor, on which there was an official apartment, has a light beige paint. Half-timbered elements adorn the knee .
In September 1900 the building received a one-story extension to the south. There was a room for the dispatcher and a post office. In 1902 it was connected to the telegraph network. Unterboihingen was connected to the Plochingen office as a telegraph auxiliary office.
After the annex was no longer sufficient for the post office, it was given a new building adjoining the annex to the south. Two-story, with a hipped roof and a wooden panel on the facade of the upper floor.
During the last renovation, a sign with the inscription Wendlingen (Neckar) was placed on the north side of the reception building and one with the inscription Unterboihingen on the south side .
Rail operations
The station has five platform tracks. Track 1, on the house platform, is used by regional trains in the direction of Plochingen, and track 2 in the direction of Nürtingen . Track 3 is also used by regional trains in the direction of Nürtingen. Platform 11, on which the S-Bahn to Kirchheim stop, is connected to the house platform. The S-Bahn towards Plochingen stop on track 12.
The station is assigned to station category 3.
