History

The Cologne -Minden Railway Company (CME ) received on May 28, 1866, the concession to build a railway line from tub to Osnabrück. This was part of the national Hamburg- Venlo railway, which in turn should be part of an international Paris - Hamburg railway. On January 1, 1870, the CME ( pan - Eickelmann today Hauptbahnhof) (Münster today ( Westphalia ) Hauptbahnhof ) began operating on the first section between the tub station on their regular route and Münster Train Station on, at the same time was the first Dülmener station.

The German Reich and the Netherlands decided on 13 November 1874, the creation of a direct rail link between Dortmund and Enschede. Which was established for this purpose Dortmund -Gronau - Enschede Railway Company (short DGE) could (now Lünen North ) take already on 25 November 1874, the first section to Lünen station in operation.

During the construction of the next section to Dülmen Dülmen the DGE station is half a mile northwest of the Cologne -Minden railway station created on 15 June 1875, and crossed the line level free. On August 1, 1875, the next section followed to the station Coesfeld ( Westphalia ). After the nationalization of the ( nominally ) private railway companies in the Prussian state railways Enschede railway station is renamed Dülmen Ost train station, although it lies just west of the Cologne -Minden railway station.

With the construction of a connecting curve north of the station between the two hitherto independent operating units, direction Coesfeld Minster, was practically a junction station. In the 1950s, the passenger on the upper route from the station to the East Dülmen Dülmen station ( high) is laid with this part of the station Dülmen station now became a tower station. The connecting curve was shut down and dismantled in the 1990s.

Also east of the station there was a connection curve driving direction Münster- Lünen. It was destroyed in the Second World War and never rebuilt, the rest is still as siding in operation. Both compounds have not traveled in passenger transport.

The May 20, opened in 1964 under Eberhard Kitter reception building is located in the corner of the junction north of the railway line pan - Eickelmann -Hamburg and west of the railway route Dortmund - Enschede.

The reception building of the former railway station of Cologne -Minden Railway Company in 1977 demolished.
