The Wien Hütteldorf train station was opened in 1858 and is now an important public transport hub in western Vienna . It is located in the 14th district, Penzing , about half in each of the cadastral communities Hütteldorf and Hacking . From 1858 to February 17, 1883 the station was named Hütteldorf , then Hütteldorf-Hacking . In 1978 at the latest, the former light rail station was renamed Hütteldorf , in 1983 the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) changed the name to Vienna Hütteldorf .
meaning
The Hütteldorf station is the junction of the Western Railway , the connecting railway and the suburb line . It is served by long-distance trains of the private railway company WESTbahn and by regional express , regional and S-Bahn trains of the Austrian Federal Railways . It is also the western terminus of the U4 line on the subway . A large number of regional and urban bus routes depart from the bus station and other nearby stops . Until the post-war period, the station also functioned as a heavily frequented transfer point for leisure traffic in the Vienna Woods .
history
Opening by the Empress Elisabeth Railway
The Imperial and Royal Empress Elisabeth Railway (KEB) put the Hütteldorfer Bahnhof into operation on December 15, 1858, together with the first section of the Western Railway. Strikingly, its reception building already had an urban architecture. An underpass did not exist at that time, the other platforms could only be reached from the house platform by crossing the tracks.
On June 28, 1883, the connecting curve to the connecting railway finally went into operation, making the station, now known as Hütteldorf-Hacking, from a through station to a separation station . As a result of the nationalization of the KEB in 1884, the kk state railways operated the station from then on, although passenger traffic on the connecting railroad was still handled by the Südbahn-Gesellschaft until 1898 .
Extension for the steam light rail
With the opening of the suburban line and the Upper Wiental line of the Vienna steam light rail on May 11, 1898 and June 1, 1898, respectively, Hütteldorf-Hacking mutated into a railway junction , its former operational abbreviation was HH. In addition, from then on it was a joint station for two different railway administrations , since the Stadtbahn was operated by the state railway, but belonged to the Commission for Transport Systems in Vienna . The latter had the urban railway architect Otto Wagner design a new station system with four central platforms, two side platforms, an underpass and various sub-buildings. The old reception building from 1858 was demolished in 1896, the new buildings were structurally completed as follows:
- November 1895: company building
- October 1896: reception building on the river side
- November 1896: right-hand reception building, operations building
- May 1897: laundry room building
- May 1897: Residential buildings for servants, central platforms, locomotive shed, coal shed, water station building, goods shed with loading ramp
- July 1897: Barracks in the station area
From 1898, four signal boxes for a total of 61 points and 17 signals ensured smooth operation . Together with the Heiligenstadt station , Hütteldorf-Hacking was one of the two most important operational stations of the light rail.
Adaptation for the electric light rail
In 1924, the municipality of Vienna - municipal trams (WStB) took over the Obere Wientallinie from the Commission for Transport Systems in Vienna and integrated it into the Viennese electric light rail system , which was now run by the local authority and operated by Hütteldorf-Hacking from June 4, 1925. At that time, its tracks were separated from those of the state railway, and the light rail system was given a generous turning loop with a radius of 32 meters. This was driven in clockwise direction, i.e. left-hand traffic without a track crossing, and had separate arrival and departure platforms as well as a passing track. The loop circled the also new depot with the address Keißlergasse 3. There were a total of 13 hall tracks with a capacity for 99 two-axle vehicles, in addition there was a butt track with a high-voltage connection for one of the two converter cars . The municipality of Vienna had its own reception building built on Hadikgasse for the tram. However, the Hütteldorfer passengers had to take a detour of almost 500 meters through the Brudermanngasse underpass at times, because direct passage through the station underpass was only permitted with state railway tickets.
In the interwar period, the so-called “Purkersdorfer Pendler ”, which originated in Hütteldorf-Hacking, took over the traffic on the so-called close - range tracks along the Western Railway . In order to be able to offer a dense frequency, the locomotive on these trains was clamped as an intermediate locomotive in the middle between the wagons, so that it was not necessary to move at the terminal stations.
Adaptation for the subway
Hütteldorf last operated the electric light rail on August 28, 1981, before - after the complete integration of the Upper Wiental Line into the U-Bahn - on December 20, 1981, the U4 line began operating there. The light rail depot was closed on October 25, 1980, but the last sidings were only closed on March 12, 1981. After extensive reconstruction and the elimination of the reversing loop, a parking facility for subway cars was replaced in Hütteldorf.
In 2008 a park + ride car park was opened that is connected to the U4 platform by a walkway.
Since the full commissioning of Vienna Central Station on December 13, 2015, all ÖBB long-distance trains on the Westbahn have been routed through the Lainzer Tunnel and no longer serve Hütteldorf station.
description
The northern reception building on the “Hütteldorfer side” is on Keißlergasse with a bus station as a forecourt, where a taxi and car sharing stand are also located. The Gerhard Hanappi Stadium was in the immediate vicinity . The Allianz Stadium , which opened in summer 2016, was built in its place. The southern building on the “Hackinger side”, which is lower in level, is separated from the Wien River by Hadikgasse . The 13th district can be reached via Hackinger Steg . The two reception buildings are connected by a platform underpass.
In the two reception buildings there are some smaller business premises, the ticket office of the Austrian Federal Railways and the underground station supervision of Wiener Linien . The station now has ten platforms, six of which are normally used for passenger traffic and two exclusively for the underground. The S45 trains in the direction of Handelskai depart from the short head platform 11, and from the house platform 1 almost all trains head west (long-distance trains to Linz , regional trains to St. Pölten , S80 and S50 to Unter Purkersdorf and Rekawinkel ). The trains to the Westbahnhof (e.g. S50) and direction Meidling (S80) depart from platforms 3/4 and 5/6. The U4 trains in the direction of the city center and on to Heiligenstadt stop at the central platform in the southern part of the station, a fully automatic single-track turning system is connected to the west and a storage hall for the trains to the east.
All platforms can be reached by elevators, platforms 1 and 11 also have a level exit to the Keißlergasse bus station. Escalators lead from the platform underpass to the Keißlergasse reception building, to platforms 3/4 and from the Hadikgasse reception building to the U4 platform.
In the Vienna Hütteldorf train station, several tracks are used for freight traffic, which is handled all day long via the connecting railway to the southern railway and Donauländebahn , mainly to the central marshalling yard Vienna-Kledering .
