Remscheid Hauptbahnhof
Remscheid Hauptbahnhof is a railway station in the Bergisch city of Remscheid in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. It is located in Willy-Brandt-Platz near central Remscheid and is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 5 station. Remscheid and Gevelsberg Hauptbahnhof are the only Hauptbahnhofs in Germany only served by S-Bahn trains.HistoryOn 1 September 1868, the Bergisch-Märkische Railway Company (Bergisch-Märkische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft) opened the first section of the Rittershausen–Opladen line from Oberbarmen (then called Rittershausen) to Lennep, together with a branch line to Remscheid, giving the city its first rail connection. Remscheid station (now called Remscheid Hauptbahnhof) and its attached buildings were built of timber. A branch line to Hasten was opened on 1 September 1883, and the Lennep–Remscheid line was duplicated up to 1891. Five years later, a branch to Bliedinghausen was added, but has only ever been used for freight.As part of the construction of the line to Bliedinghausen the platforms were modified. Passenger trains to Hasten previously ran from their own terminal platform west of the station building. The sidings located east of Bismarckstraße later became the Remscheid East yard, which was connected to the station by a four track bridge over Bismarckstraße in 1900.
