The S-Bahn station was commissioned in the framework of the extension of the S -Bahn line S 4 ( the network of S- Bahn Rhein -Ruhr ) to Lütgendortmunder market on 23 May 1993 operation. The closest bus stop was renamed Dortmund- Lütgendortmund S-Bahn station, before it was called Luetgendortmund market.
The continued construction of the S 4 via its present western end of the line in the tunnel from Dortmund - Luetgendortmund was provided in the S -Bahn destination network 2015. For this, the single-track tunnels should be extended until immediately south of the station Dortmund- Bövinghausen, the S4 should take over from there to Herne Bf the routes at the Emscher Valley Railway and from there the road Herne - Eating the current line S2. The Emscher Valley Railway should only run between Herne and Dorsten. The Ostast between Dortmund and Dortmund Hbf Bövinghausen should be driven by a new light rail line Dortmund. For a long time was the money for tunnel support to Bövinghausen ready, but the financing of the operation was not assured. The Emscher Valley Railway runs between Dortmund- Bövinghausen and Herne Bf every hour, as well as the S2 between Herne Bf and Essen Central Station, a train -compliant twenty minute intervals would VRR can only finance through savings in other areas. After taking office the Minister of Transport Oliver Wittke all target agreements were initially tilted and re-evaluate. The route extension was rejected by the Integrated Comprehensive Transport Planning of North Rhine -Westphalia, a resubmission is possible from 2015.
