It is the only station of the town and the largest in the municipality of Weimar (Lahn). The station is classified by Deutsche Bahn (DB) as a category 5 station.〔 The station is heritage-listed under the Hessian Heritage Act. == History == The station was opened in 1850 at the same time as the Main-Weser Railway. The village of Niederwalgern experienced a boom as a result of the opening of the railway. A depot was built to the northern part of the station precincts, which was partly used for loading freight. The importance of the station, especially for passengers continued to increase with the opening of the Aar–Salzböde Railway in May 1894. The Main-Weser Railway was electrified in the 1960s, this also applied for a short section of the line to Herborn in the railway station. The demise of the station began in the 1980s, when the electric overhead in the western part of the station and many remote sidings were removed. In addition, the loading of freight has been completely abandoned. In 1992, the last freight train ran from Gladenbach into the station and the closure of the Aar–Salzböde railway was likely. When passenger operations ended on the eastern part of this route in May 1995, despite the positive report of an inquiry, the importance of the station declined significantly. Some rail services were cancelled and the station staff was withdrawn. The reactivation of the Aar–Salzböde railway became ever more unlikely with the abandonment of the total traffic on the western sector (2001), total closure (2002) and finally the dismantling of the track to the west of Niederwalgern (2006). Today, the route to Herborn is dismantled, except in the station area in Niederwalgern, the freight yard is closed and the number of operable tracks has been reduced to three. Moreover, in recent years, some freight tracks in the northern part of the station and connecting tracks to the Aar–Salzböde railway have been dismantled. The station is designed to be a largely barrier-free environment. The only problem for people with disabilities is the crossing from platform 1 to platform 2, which lies between the tracks. 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「Niederwalgern station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
