The Schweinfurt city railway station , commonly known as the city train station , is a railway station in Schweinfurt , at the railway Bamberg Rottendorf . It is the oldest train station in the city and the second largest after the main train station . Stattbahnhof (derived from the new use: instead of train station ) is the name of the cultural center, which is located in the historic train station building, which is no longer used as a reception building.

location

The station is located on the Main , in the south of the northeastern part of the city (Kiliansberg), 500 m east of the old town and 250 m east of the city ring.

history

Traffic importance

Today the station is only served by regional trains. It was the city's first train station after the Ludwigs-Westbahn was extended from Bamberg to Schweinfurt in 1852. The station was opened on November 3, 1852. In 1874 the city station, which had become too small in the meantime , was supplemented by the Centralbahnhof , today's main station , which soon assumed the central role in local rail traffic. The Schweinfurt tram , which ran from 1895 to 1921, ended 400 m west of the city station and went to the main station .

Today, the city station is mainly used by rail travelers from the old town, the northeastern part of the city and the districts of Hochfeld / Steinberg and Deutschhof , which are much closer to the city station than the main station.

Infrastructure

City train station with forecourt

The station building of the Schweinfurt city train station, built in 1852–56 according to plans by Gottfried von Neureuther , is located on the northern side of the track and is a listed building with its extensions. Since 1997 it has housed the alternative cultural center Stattbahnhof , where several associations are also based. Since then, concerts and other music events have taken place in the two former waiting / counter halls.

The station has three platform tracks on which passenger traffic is handled. The house platform is no longer in use, the track bed is overgrown. A central platform was laid between the two through tracks 1 and 2, slightly more in the direction of Bamberg than the old platform where the trains on the Würzburg – Bamberg route stop. To the south of this there is still a head track 3 with a side platform, where the Erfurt Railway trains to and from Bad Kissingen ( Lower Franconia Shuttle ) have started and ended since 2004 . Track access at the station is via a continuous underpass, access to the central platform is not barrier-free via a staircase, access to platform three is via a ramp.

Freight traffic facilities are no longer available in 2013, the goods shed is still standing, the side of the track has grown over.

The relay interlocking of the type SpDrL30 put into operation in 1967 has been remote-controlled from Schweinfurt main station since 1978 .
