The Bruges ( Westphalia ) station is a station on the railway Volmetal from Hagen to Dieringhausen and is used by DB Station & Service performed in the lowest station category 7. Because of the branch of the railway line to Lüdenscheid he is a separation station. The station is located on the edge of the hamlet Lüdenscheider Bruges. The only platform extends up to the bus stop and is at ground level. Nationally known is the rider Interlocking of the station.

History

The Volmetal train from Hagen to to Dieringhausen opened in 1871-1893. Around the station area created numerous apartments for the Railwaymen because Bruges ( Westphalia ) had a high importance in rail traffic and many residents were employed in the station operation. For these times also originates nor the rider Interlocking, also there was a roundhouse with a turntable and a private water tower on the site. Until 1986 there was a direct connection to Cologne in passenger, the 2013 expected to be between Marie Heath and Meinerzhagen and later ( December 2016 ) to Bruges ( Westphalia ) is to be reactivated. 2009, the former decorated in an Art Nouveau station building was demolished because of the danger of collapse, because there had been no restoration of the old building in recent years.

The platform of the station facilities Bruges still exist partially, but have also been partially dismantled. Previously, the platform facilities were connected for the route of Dieringhausen and Cologne via an underground passage to the station forecourt. Freight transport in Bruges is limited to the coming of the route to Krummenerl freight trains of the local quarry, which continue on the path through Volmetal Bruges to the north. According to the city council and the mayor Dieter Lüdenscheid Dzewas it is planned to build an island platform with two platform tracks in Bruges, which should be at ground level. However, this plan will only be put into effect when the closure of the gap between train Volmetal Marie Heath or Meinerzhagen and Bruges ( Westphalia ) is complete. A result, many students would have the opportunity schools, colleges and other educational institutions in the area to visit or come to Lüdenscheid to visit them. The attractiveness of the region would rise and could halt the population decline in the coming years. Therefore it is important, according to Dieter Dzewas further for obtaining the distance between Meinerzhagen and Bruges ( Westphalia ) to fight and to find an investor for the track, which makes the route for passenger trains again passable.

The facade and roof of the old railway signal box on the tab Bruges train station, which dates back to 1927, are currently being renovated. This was announced by a spokeswoman for Deutsche Bahn on July 2, 2012, the newspaper " Lüdenscheider News " with. Thus, the defining building of the former railway junction would receive a boost.

On 31 January 2013, a report in the Lüdenscheider news appeared that the new proposed 120 m long central platform at the station Bruges ( Westphalia ) was too short according to a rule. In contrast defend themselves according to the newspaper now the German Bahn AG and the city Lüdenscheid. The new platform should be between railroads Lüdenscheid - Cologne and Bruges -Hagen. Incoming passengers could there either on the same platform change to the opposite train or use a transition that would lead to bus stops, taxi parks or parking lots on the edge of the tracks. If the new platform instead of 120 m 170 m would be according to the rule now, you could solve the transition between the platform and the road only with a bridge like on Meinerzhagen station. Otherwise, the passengers came out according to the newspaper in the rear area of the planned new fire station. The city Lüdenscheid would like this if it is possible to avoid by a shorter platform.

On 20 March 2013, a further report in the Lüdenscheider news appeared that the future is 80 meters long planned platform in Brugge will be but longer now. However, the platform should not be extended to the desired country from the Department of Transportation standard of 170 meters, but only up to 120 meters. The promise was given for the Municipality of Lüdenscheid now by Deutsche Bahn, and especially this commitment was important for the city Lüdenscheid. The trains are maintained parallel to the platform in order to keep the transfer from the Cologne train to Hagen as short as possible. After Lüdenscheid the route should, however, result directly. The place to wait for the buses and taxis currently have, but it should still remain directly accessible. The city Lüdenscheid hopes that her previous targets will be also approved. Thus, passengers are from the platform directly to the approximately 5,000 -square-foot space with serviceable MVG buses, taxis or private greeters ( Kiss & Ride) can reach. Dignity of the platform, however, be too long, he would end up on the future site of the fire department. Thus, the passengers would almost landing in the back of the new fire station. However, the Ministry is to hold still closed. The same is true according to the city Lüdenscheid for the Federal Railway Authority, which has to decide whether it is for a formal or Bruges - should give abbreviated plan approval process - as desired.

In addition, there should be a direct train from Lüdenscheid to Cologne from 2015, when the recently again confirmed plan data is held until 2015. The future train station Bruges ( Westphalia ) is then to be upgraded as a transportation hub. For example, for all passengers who want from Cologne to Dortmund Hagen or: You could then in Bruges by train to change to train and continue immediately, because the trains are at the same time waiting on both sides of the new platform. Among the positive effects of future lines for Lüdenscheid then counted also, that the mountain city of Cologne will be reached without transition. Bruges train station ( Westphalia ) will, however, interesting for all passengers from the south, which could continue from here on the bus. Which brings up the question arises whether, in view of the expected frequencies would be to think of a kiosk. Lt.. the city Lüdenscheid is this not yet been scheduled but quite conceivable. The road that runs along the Volme to be " On Brugge Train Station " named as, soon. No precise information admit it still about how long you 'll be in the regional Ludenscheid to Cologne actually go. Good 90 minutes it should, as measured by comparable routes, but his. Be unclear yet whether the German railway will even serve this route or if here any other provider comes into play. The city administration Lüdenscheid go according to the report assumes that the schedule would be kept, also independent of will choose which method to planning approval, the Federal Railway Authority. The previous information to loud that the question "formal or shortened " in the method have no effect on: Still in 2015, according to the report should roll the first train.
