The Munich-Giesing – Kreuzstraße railway is a single-track, electrified main line in the south of Munich . It was opened as a local train between 1902 and 1912 and integrated into the Munich S-Bahn network in 1972/73 .

Routing

Aying station

Junction from the Mangfall Valley Railway in Kreuzstraße station

The line branches off from the Munich East – Deisenhofen line south of Ständerstraße , between the Munich-Giesing train station and the Fasangarten stop . After a few hundred meters with two tracks, the line becomes single-track and initially heads east towards Munich-Perlach . The federal highway 8 is crossed. After the Perlach train station, the route turns south-east and reaches the Neuperlach Süd stop . This is located on a bridge over Carl-Wery-Straße and is the only one in Munich with a so-called combi platform , where the underground and S-Bahn share a common platform.

The route continues through the communities of Neubiberg and Ottobrunn and thus through densely built-up areas. After crossing the Munich ring road and the federal road 471 , the route reaches Hohenbrunn and thus already a strongly rural area. The following train stations and stops are, with the exception of Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn, in localities with only three-digit inhabitants. In particular, the community of Aying is developed through four breakpoints or train stations in small places, namely Dürrnhaar , Aying, Peiß and Großhelfendorf . After the last-mentioned stop, the route finally runs in a south-westerly direction down to Kreuzstraße in the municipality of Valley , where it meets the Mangfall Valley Railway from Rosenheim to Holzkirchen . The station is located in a side valley of the Mangfall , the Teufelsgraben .

history

Ottobrunn stop

Hohenbrunn station with S7 to Ostbahnhof

The local railway , which originally only ran between Munich-Giesing and Aying, was built as one of the last radial radial lines between the capital and royal seat of Munich and the surrounding area. The communities of Peiß, Helfendorf, Egmating , Siegertsbrunn, Hohenbrunn, Höhenkirchen, Brunnthal and Oberpframmern have been trying to build a railway line since 1892 . For the time being, however, preference was given to the Munich East – Deisenhofen line . To the south of Aying / Peiß, the route was initially planned to lead via Helfendorf to Grub . There would have been a connection to the Mangfall Valley Railway. Also up for discussion was a guided tour west to Otterfing on the route from Deisenhofen to Holzkirchen, or directly to Holzkirchen. There were also disagreements about the location of the Dürrnhaar stops (Faistenhaar to the west wanted to see the railway run further west) and the Aying terminus. The latter was originally intended to be built further south between Aying and Peiß (around today's level crossing). The construction of the railway was approved on March 2, 1900. Construction of the line began on April 1, 1902. On May 28, 1904, a train with several celebrities (including Transport Minister Heinrich von Frauendorfer ) made a test drive on the route, which opened shortly afterwards on June 5.

The 6.4 kilometer extension of the line to Kreuzstrasse went into operation on November 23, 1912. Graf Arco's request to Valley to continue building the route via Valley to Darching was not met at the time due to a lack of profitability.

1971/72, the line was associated with the expansion of the Munich S-Bahn electrified . On May 28, 1972, the opening day of the S-Bahn, the section up to Hohenbrunn became the S1 line (Freising – Munich – Kreuzstrasse), with train and bus connections in the direction of Aying and Kreuzstrasse. On September 30, 1973, the S-Bahn was started over Hohenbrunn to Kreuzstrasse. From June 10, 2001, the S7 operated on the section, from December 12, 2004 the S6 and since December 13, 2009 the S7 again.

traffic

The entire length of the route is used by the S7 line of the Munich S-Bahn. There is a 20-minute cycle between Munich and Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn, a 20/40 minute cycle to and from Aying, and every hour to Kreuzstrasse. During rush hour, individual journeys that start or end in the “normal” schedule in Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn are extended to Kreuzstraße: in the morning from Kreuzstraße towards Munich, in the evening from Munich towards Kreuzstraße. Some of these amplifier trips leave out the poorly used breakpoints Peiß and Dürrnhaar.
