Although the city has mostly dispensed with the appendage of "Taunus" in its name the station still officially retains it, although signs on the newest platform and Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund maps do not include it. The station is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 4 station.〔 ==History== In 1895, construction began on the ''Usingen'' Railway ((ドイツ語:Usinger Bahn)), now the Taunus Railway (''Taunusbahn''), to connect Friedrichsdorf and the Taunus communities with Frankfurt in order "to bring the backwardness of the region to an end." It ran a single track from the Usinger Bahnhof (“Usingen station”) in Bad Homburg via Seulberg to Friedrichsdorf and continued via Köppern into the Taunus. During its construction, Friedrichsdorf station was planned as a through station. Already plans had been developed for another rail connection between Friedrichsdorf and the Main-Weser Railway. The Friedberg–Friedrichsdorf railway was not opened until 1901. Its construction lead to the upgrading of the whole line from Frankfurt via Friedrichsdorf to Friedberg in order to increase its capacity, at the personal request of Emperor Wilhelm II, including its duplication from 1907 until 1910. Initially there were two passenger tracks and a freight track at the station. To the south towards Seulberg, a wooden bridge was built across the tracks. The station building is west of the tracks. It consists of a central building with two floors and two lateral extensions and is very similar to Usingen station. The line was soon carrying freight. Especially in freight operations, excess demand often caused delays. Later, direct sidings were built to local firms. ''Rühl AG & Co.'' and the ''Tettauer'' glass works both had a siding. The main operation of the glass works was established in Friedrichsdorf in 1945, as the rail connection to its original plant in Tettau was cut by the establishment of the inner-German border (even though it was in Bavaria). On 27 September 1970, electric services began running on the line to Friedrichsdorf. In addition, seven years later a relay interlocking was built in Bad Homburg, controlling the area from Weißkirchen〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Schienen in Bad Homburg ... )〕 and extended to Friedrichsdorf in 1978. The trains on the lines from Grävenwiesbach (the Taunus Railway) and Friedberg (the Friedberg–Friedrichsdorf railway) now mainly ended in Friedrichsdorf. In 1974, operations of an S-Bahn-like service as line R 5 began on the line between Frankfurt Central Station and Friedrichsdorf with its inclusion in the ''Frankfurter Verkehrs- und Tarifverbund'' (Frankfurt Transport Association, the forerunner of the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund between 1974 and 1995, FVV). This evolved in 1978 into the current line S 5 of the Rhine-Main S-Bahn. In 1992, the line of the Usingen Railway from Friedrichsdorf to Grävenwiesbach was reactivated in 1993 as the “T-Bahn” and supported by the FVV. The trains now continued to Bad Homburg. Since the take-over of operations by the ''Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund'' (Rhine-Main Transport Association, RMV), no Taunus Railway services now terminate in Friedrichsdorf. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Friedrichsdorf station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
