They worked initially on two proposals. The first would have meant a line running via Korb to Winnenden. The second proposal was to the extent the line as far as possible through the Rems valley, leaving it near Großheppach to turn to the north. Ultimately, the decision was made to build a viaduct over the Rems at Neustadt and use the current route, which runs on a lower and more westerly alignment than either of the original proposals. Schwaikheim Schultheiß (mayor) Gebhard Friedrich Simon, who at that time sat as a deputy in the Württemberg parliament, campaigned strongly for a rail connection for his home town. Some earthworks were necessary in the Schwaikheim district. The Royal Württemberg State Railways had to dig a tunnel in order for the railway line to climb from the Erbach valley to Winnenden. A straight course to the east was created by building a railway embankment over the Lohwiesenbach. The station was a kilometre south of Schwaikheim. The State Railway asked the local council to build a broad road to the station. But this was refused and it built a road that was only as wide as a pedestrian path. The station building has been preserved. It is a two-storey building with a gable roof that is 15 metres long and nine metres wide. The ground floor consists of sandstone and the upper floor is built of brick. The ground floor initially had a post office with a telegraph office. 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「Schwaikheim station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
