The Rheinbahn in Baden is a railway line in Baden-Württemberg from Mannheim via Karlsruhe to Rastatt , the extension of which, the Steinbourg – Rastatt railway line, formerly continued as a strategic railway to Haguenau and on to Saverne in what is now the French Alsace .
The partly Rheintalbahn said railway line was used as a supplement to Baden Mainline built and runs largely parallel to the wide area from Mannheim via Heidelberg, Karlsruhe, Rastatt and Offenburg leading to Basel Rheintalbahn .
history
1870–1890: opening and first years
The Badische Hauptbahn was built from 1840 onwards from Mannheim via Heidelberg to Karlsruhe and from there on to Basel until 1855 and later to Constance . The detour via Heidelberg, however, was a thorn in the side of the city of Mannheim in particular, as its natural catchment area, which was located directly on the Rhine around the cities of Schwetzingen and Hockenheim , had remained on the left.
Afterwards there was a heated discussion about the routing of the southern part: The plans to run the train via Linkenheim , Eggenstein and Neureut to the Mühlburger Tor station and from there to run together with the Maxaubahn to Karlsruhe main station (today's Hardtbahn ) came from the Baden Grand Duke Frederick I took precedence over efforts to run the railway line across the east of the city (today's route). It was accepted that no through traffic in the north-south direction was possible on the route, as this should continue to run via the Baden-Kurpfalz Railway from Heidelberg to Karlsruhe.
The construction of the line from Mannheim via Schwetzingen - Graben-Neudorf and Eggenstein to Karlsruhe by Hardt was financed by the city of Mannheim and taken over by the Baden State Railway on the day it opened on August 4, 1870. The route was also known as the Rheinbahn , but there are older maps on which it is also referred to as the Rhine Valley Railway .
Shortly after the opening in 1870, there was the problem that military transports from Mannheim to the south had to make head in Karlsruhe , which was accelerated by a connecting curve between the Rheinbahn and the main line.
Development from 1890 to the world wars
Since it was firmly expected that there would soon be another military conflict with France, efforts were also made to build strategic railway lines. Against this background, the German General Staff in particular demanded a railway line over the strategic route from Graben-Neudorf via Blankenloch, Karlsruhe, Durmersheim , Rastatt and Roeschwoog to Haguenau in Alsace , which was opened in 1895 together with the Karlsruhe freight bypass railway . Since the new route via Blankenloch was also the shorter and more direct route, the Rheinbahn trains ran over it from then on. Together with the line via Obermodern to Saverne , the Steinbourg – Rastatt railway served alternately for German and French military purposes.
The now sidelined section of the Karlsruhe – Eggenstein – Graben-Neudorf section was henceforth called the Hardtbahn and converted into a connecting line. To continue on the Hardtbahn in the direction of Mannheim, you had to change trains in Graben-Neudorf.
After completion of the section via Blankenloch, a brisk through traffic developed on the Rheinbahn, especially since it represents the shortest connection between Mannheim and Karlsruhe, in contrast to the Old Baden Main Railway, which takes the detour via Bruchsal and Heidelberg (see also Baden-Kurpfalz-Bahn ) . In addition, trains via Heidelberg had to turn around in the former terminal station there by 1955.
Mannheim - Rastatt 1945-2000
The Rheinbahn was electrified in the 1950s. In the following years, several train stations that were no longer profitable were closed.
In order to relieve the pressure on the very busy route, the Rheinbahn in the area between Hockenheim and Graben-Neudorf was included in the planning of the Mannheim-Stuttgart high-speed route . Connections to the existing line were planned at several points and the old line partially relocated: In particular, the Rheinbahn in Hockenheim received a new station with transfer connections from and to the new line in both station heads, in which a prototype of an electronic interlocking (ESTW) controls all control elements on the New line to the Kraichgau. In Neulußheim, the route was moved almost 150 meters to the east.
The section between Mannheim main station and Graben-Neudorf station was completed in 1987 as the first section of the new line and connected to the Rheinbahn with the Waghäusel Saalbach – Graben-Neudorf line , also to relieve this.
The 21-kilometer section between Graben-Neudorf and Karlsruhe was upgraded as a link between the full-length high-speed line Mannheim – Stuttgart, which was opened in 1991, and the Rheinbahn, which was also used for the high-speed line Karlsruhe – Basel, from November 1987 for speeds of up to 200 km / h.
In the spring of 1989, construction work began between Graben-Neudorf and Karlsruhe to change the block division and to install the line train control. Nine level crossings were removed. Around 60 million DM should be invested in the project.
Since then, the long-distance trains on the Rheinbahn have made their way north of Graben-Neudorf on this route. During this time, trains made up of n-type cars that were hauled by class 141 electric locomotives were used in local passenger transport .
In 1997, the Karlsruhe-Hagsfeld station, which was closed in the mid-1980s, was reactivated in connection with the opening of the Karlsruhe – Blankenloch line of the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn . Since then it has served as a transfer point between city and regional trains (lines R 2 and S 2 in the KVV).
AVG trams have been running every hour on the section between Karlsruhe main station and Rastatt station since 1994 (first as line S 7, then later as line S 4, since 2017 again as S 7 and S 8), but no longer from the main station , but from Karlsruhe Albtalbahnhof and via the connecting ramp between the Albtalbahnhof and the platform in front of the main station.
Further development 2000–2010
Since 2000, Regional Express trains (RE) have been running every two hours from Karlsruhe via Speyer, Ludwigshafen and Worms to Mainz. From Karlsruhe to Graben-Neudorf, the trains run on the Rheinbahn. Class 425 railcars have been used on this line since the route to Germersheim was electrified in 2011 .
The S 41 line (since 2017 as the S 8 line) has also operated on the section between Karlsruhe Albtalbahnhof and Rastatt since 2002, which connects the Murg Valley with the Karlsruhe market square every hour, so that during the day there is a 20th day on the section between Karlsruhe and Rastatt / 40-minute intervals. In the evening hours, the S 4 and S 41 lines run together at hourly intervals, with train sharing in Rastatt, but sometimes only the S 41, so that the Baden-Baden section of the route is served by the S 32, which runs via Ettlingen West.
A tram line ( Nordstadtbahn ) was opened in 2006 on the former route through the northern part of Karlsruhe .
The bypass road of Bundesstraße 36 , which was opened in 2006, was built in a bundle with the future upgraded and new line Karlsruhe – Basel , which is to branch off the current route at Basheide and lead into the Rastatt tunnel . Two tunnel boring machines have been working on the tunnel since 2016 . After problems crossing under the old Rheintalbahn tracks in 2017, completion of the tunnel is now planned for 2025.
Future development
The Mannheim – Karlsruhe route was to be included in the RheinNeckar S-Bahn network by 2015 . As early as 2004, a preliminary operation with S-Bahn railcars of the 425 series was set up, but due to the low platforms with vehicles with fixed steps instead of those with folding steps. With the start of regular S-Bahn operations, all subway stations will be modernized. New stops are to be created in Schwetzingen-Hirschacker and Schwetzingen-Nordstadt . The Graben-Neudorf Süd stop, which is also planned , will not be pursued any further due to a high share of funding from the Graben-Neudorf municipality .
To the south of Schwetzingen there is planning law for all planned station conversions; some of the construction work began in September 2017. Financial support from the Federal Republic of Germany was rejected for the ramps of the underpass in Oftersheim, against which DB Station & Service AG has sued.
In the northern section, the commissioning of the temporary platform in Mannheim-Neckarau is now planned (as of June 2019) by April 2020. Planning legal proceedings are ongoing for the Schwetzingen-Hirschacker and Schwetzingen-Nordstadt stations; commissioning is planned for 2021.
Route
The route runs throughout the flat Upper Rhine Plain . That is why it runs almost in a straight line and has no major engineering structures. The start of the route is within the Mannheim district . With Rastatt , Ötigheim , Bietigheim (Baden) , Durmersheim , Rheinstetten , Karlsruhe, Stutensee , Graben-Neudorf , Waghäusel , Neulußheim, Hockenheim , Oftersheim , Schwetzingen and Mannheim a total of 14 municipalities are passed. From south of Rheinau to behind Neulußheim it crosses the Rhein-Neckar district , to the north of Hagsfeld the district of Karlsruhe . It runs to the southwest of the Dammerstock junction within the Karlsruhe district . Between the Basheide block and Forchheim (b Karlsruhe) , the route crosses the Karlsruhe district for the last time, and from around the Bashaide block it crosses the Rastatt district .
Timetable
Passenger traffic on the route is recorded in the Deutsche Bahn timetable under number 700 between Karlsruhe and Mannheim, and between Karlsruhe and Rastatt under numbers 702, 710.7 and 710.8. It is very busy today. Numerous long-distance and freight trains use this route. The Karlsruhe – Mainz RE line runs between Graben-Neudorf and Karlsruhe, but has no intermediate stops between Karlsruhe and Graben-Neudorf.
In the rest of the local transport, mainly regional trains run between Mannheim and Karlsruhe, which usually run every half hour to Waghäusel, stop everywhere along the way and occasionally also regional express trains that stop at least in Graben-Neudorf, Waghäusel, Hockenheim and Schwetzingen.
Operating points
Mannheim Central Station
The Mannheim Central Station is located on the southern edge of downtown. It was created in 1867 after a connection to Ludwigshafen had been built, which is now part of the Mannheim – Saarbrücken railway . It replaced the original terminus at Tattersall .
Mannheim-Neckarau
In the vicinity of the Mannheim- Neckarau train station, which has largely been abandoned to decay , tram line 1 and buses in the direction of downtown Mannheim as well as Neckarau West, Rheinau / Schwetzingen and Altrip run. As part of the expansion of the line to the S-Bahn, it is planned to relocate the station a few meters to the south in order to better develop the Neckarau center.
Altrip
The Altrip stop was located in the district of Mannheim. The municipality of Altrip itself is located on the opposite side of the Rhine in Rhineland-Palatinate , while the Rheinbahn is located exclusively within Baden-Württemberg . For lack of profitability, the stop, as well as the factory station and Rheinau harbor, were closed in 1987.
Mannheim-Rheinau
Mannheim-Rheinau train station is located in the Rheinau district of Mannheim . From 1905 it was the starting point of the branch line to Brühl , which was tied through to Ketsch in 1912 . In 1966 it was shut down again.
Schwetzingen
Schwetzingen train station is not far from Schwetzingen city center. In 1873 he was charged with opening of the railway line Heidelberg Speyer for railway junction . Since 1880, the railway line from Neu-Edingen / Mannheim-Friedrichsfeld, which is used exclusively for freight traffic, has also flowed into it from the north . After the section Oftersheim - Speyer was interrupted due to the demolition of the Rhine bridge towards the end of the Second World War, traffic between Schwetzingen and Heidelberg also ended in 1967 .
Oftersheim
There are bus connections from Oftersheim train station to Heidelberg or Speyer (line 717, every half hour on weekdays, every hour on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays) and Walldorf (line 712, only individual trips).
Hockenheim
Hockenheim train station is located on the western outskirts of Hockenheim . It has existed since 1986 and replaced its predecessor located further east. It was created in the course of the construction of the Mannheim – Stuttgart high-speed line , in order to combine it with the Rheinbahn at the level of the city center.
Neulußheim
Neulußheim train station is located on the eastern outskirts of Neulußheim . It has existed since 1986 and replaced its predecessor located further west. As in Hockenheim, the Rheinbahn and the high-speed line were to be bundled in this area. From Neulußheim train station there are bus connections to Heidelberg or Speyer (line 717, every half hour on weekdays, every hour on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays), to Walldorf (line 718, only Mondays to Fridays, every hour) and to Rot-Malsch (line 719, only Monday to Friday, every half hour).
Waghausel
Waghäusel train station borders on the southwestern edge of the Waghäusel district of the large district town of the same name, but, geographically speaking, lies within the boundaries of the Wiesental district. The train station is roughly halfway between Mannheim and Karlsruhe, so both cities can be reached in about the same time. In the immediate vicinity of the train station is an industrial area with a dm distribution center and the Schuler Waghäusel branch. The Hermitage and the pilgrimage church are also within easy walking distance. Since the station is in the transition area between the VRN and KVV transport associations , tickets from both transport associations are recognized. Buses run from the station forecourt in the direction of Bruchsal , Oberhausen-Rheinhausen , Philippsburg , Altlußheim , Kronau and Bad Schönborn as well as to all parts of the city. Because of its convenient and central location, the station is also used by many commuters from the surrounding cities and communities.
Graben-Neudorf
The Graben-Neudorf station became a railway junction with the creation of the Bruhrain Railway between 1874 and 1877 . With the opening of the route from Graben-Neudorf via Blankenloch to Karlsruhe, which was opened for strategic reasons , the section via Eggenstein , which had previously served as part of the Rheinbahn, was sidelined. This was henceforth called " Hardtbahn " and functioned exclusively as a branch line . Passenger traffic ended there in 1967 , whereupon the Leopoldshafen- Graben-Neudorf section was dismantled. On parts of the remaining route, a light rail line to Hochstetten was built from the late 1970s . In 1988 the station also became the southern terminus of the Waghäusel Saalbach – Graben-Neudorf railway , which connects it with the Mannheim – Stuttgart high-speed line .
Karlsruhe main station
The Karlsruhe Train Station is located since 1913 on the southern edge of the Karlsruhe Südstadt , replacing the original train station in the city. The station has a telephone connection, travel information , bicycle parking spaces , parking spaces , a bus connection , taxis , toilets , lockers , mobility services and travel supplies.
Forchheim (near Karlsruhe)
Station with mechanical signal box of Bruchsal I station, the signal box will be taken out of service at the end of September 2018 and replaced by ESTW-A Basheide, which will then remotely control Forchheim station (b Karlsruhe). The train station is located in the Rheinstetten district of Silberlinien.
Bashide
The Bashaide block station was the last block station with a mechanical signal box in Baden-Württemberg until March 27, 2017; in the meantime, the signal box building, on the bottom of which there will be tracks in the future, has been demolished. The block site was a cultural monument that was demolished, as its preservation would result in a disproportionate space requirement and interference with the natural balance
due to the constraint points of the overpass and the existing route . In order to commemorate this facility that was created in connection with the “Kanonenbahn” from Graben-Neudorf to Sarreguemines, it is planned to set up a functionless, non-rail-facing form signal near the former block.
The ESTW-A Bashaide has been in operation since October 4, 2018, from where the operating points Bashaide and Forchheim (b Karlsruhe) as well as the Mörsch level crossing are set up, and which is controlled by the ESTW sub-center Rastatt controlled from the BZ Karlsruhe. The building, consisting of six modules and a floor area of 108 m², was built in February 2018. The construction of the new ESTW including the 25 new signals cost around nine million euros.
Initially, Bashaide is now a depot, with a simple switch connection in the north head and a siding to supply the construction site of the Rastatt tunnel in the south head, but it is to become a junction with six points. The work in the area of the Bashaide junction is expected to be completed in November 2021.
Durmersheim
Mechanical interlockings from the early days of the railway are still in operation here. In the north head there is a signal box of the type Bruchsal G / I, while in the south head there is a signal box of the type Bruchsal I. Due to the level passenger crossing and the narrow platform, in connection with the trains passing through at speeds of up to 160 km / h and three level crossings with long closing times, this station is a potential danger point.
Rastatt
Rastatt station was connected to the railway network on May 1, 1844, when the Heidelberg - Karlsruhe section of the Rhine Valley Railway was opened. With the opening of the Murg Valley Railway, the station became a hub station . In 1895 the Rheinbahn from Karlsruhe to Haguenau went into operation . The station has also been integrated into the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn network since 1994 and is served by four lines that branch off into the Rhine and Murg valleys. Rastatt train station is one of the largest bottlenecks in Baden-Württemberg.
