Bottrop Hauptbahnhof is the only remaining passenger station in the city of Bottrop . The older Bottrop Nord and Bottrop Süd stations have been closed to passenger traffic since 1960 and 1974, respectively. There are also three stops in Bottrop-Boy , Bottrop-Vonderort and Feldhausen . The station is classified in station category 4.
Location and structure
The train station is located in the south of the city of Bottrop. The operating point is on the VzG routes 2242 (Gerschede - Bottrop Hbf), 2246 ( Oberhausen-Osterfeld - Bottrop Hbf - Hugo [Abzw]), 2248 ( Essen-Dellwig Ost - Bottrop Hbf) and 2250 (Oberhausen-Osterfeld - Hamm [ Westf] Rbf ). The entrance signals come from the west not far from the city limits of Oberhausen or Essen , from the south (Gerschede) at the level of Bahnhofstrasse and from the east between the dumps Prosperstrasse and Beckstrasse . The station is divided into the station parts Bottrop Hbf Pbf (passenger station), Bottrop Hbf Gbf (goods station) and Bottrop Hbf Not (location of the former signal box Not).
The passenger station has three platform tracks on two platforms. Track 1 is used as planned by the Rhein-Ruhr S-Bahn trains, and the platform is 96 centimeters high throughout . The regional trains to Essen Hbf or Oberhausen Hbf as well as Borken via Dorsten stop as scheduled at tracks 2 and 3 ; the platform edges are therefore partially lowered to 76 centimeters.
There is a bike rental shop here , but no travel center .
history
On November 12, 1879, the Royal Westphalian Railway Company had already put the Horst - Osterfeld WfE section of its Emschertal Railway into operation, but without building a train station in Bottrop's urban area. Just one year later, the company was nationalized and the route was partially dismantled.
On May 1, 1905, the Prussian State Railways opened the Hamm-Osterfelder Bahn , which runs from Osterfeld Süd (today: Oberhausen-Osterfeld ) parallel to the Westphalian line and swings north about four kilometers east of today's main station. At the same time as the line, just under half a kilometer east of today's central station, what was then called Bottrop (Westf) was opened. This was designed as an island station between the two railway lines, the station building was east of Bahnhofsstraße and was enclosed by the Hamm-Osterfelder Bahn in the north and the Westphalian Emschertalbahn in the south. The building was a half-timbered building with a slate hipped roof . Because of its characteristic exterior, it was nicknamed "Knusperhäuschen".
The Bottrop CME station of the former Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft on the Ruhrort - Dortmund line was renamed Bottrop Süd at that time, and the Bottrop RhE station of the former Rheinische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft on the Duisburg - Dorsten - Coesfeld - Rheine - Quakenbrück line in Bottrop North .
The station was connected to the Frintrop marshalling yard in 1913 via a connecting curve . On July 1, 1922, the connecting line to the Osterfeld North - Mülheim-Heißen / Essen West line went into operation. Since June 1933 the operating site has been called Bottrop Hbf . The "Westphalian route" from Bottrop was not put back into operation after the Second World War and was partially dismantled.
On July 13, 1975, the Essen Federal Railway Directorate put the Bof central signal box into operation. The relay interlocking of the type SpDrL60 from Standard Elektrik Lorenz replaced the four mechanical interlockings Bpt , Not , Ot and Wt from the opening time.
In the spring of 1978 the Federal Railway Directorate in Essen had the counter hall at the station renovated. However, the entire station building was not renovated. At the beginning of the 1990s the decision was made to demolish the building and relocate the passenger station about 500 meters to the west. The demolition started in February 1995, today the tracks of the Hamm-Osterfelder Bahn run at this point. The new station with three platforms went into operation in 1999.
A contemplated S-Bahn station Bottrop Mitte under the central bus station near the city center was not realized.
Since September 2012, the Bof signal box has been remote- controlled by the Of electronic signal box in Oberhausen-Osterfeld .

Like the entire Recklinghausen district, Bottrop Central Station is located in timetable area 2 of the Rhein-Ruhr transport association and is served by buses from the Vestische trams , the Ruhrbahn and the Rhineland bus services (BVR) at the northern exit of the station. All bus lines serve the central bus station on Berliner Platz in the city center.

In order to offer a better connection to Essen city center, a night bus line, NE16, runs to Bottrop main station at night (on weekdays until 1:00 a.m.) . This runs (on weekdays until 2:00 a.m.) from Essen main train station to Bottrop main train station and to ZOB Berliner Platz in order to ensure the connection to Bottrop city center.
