History
The Dortmund -Gronau - Enschede Railway Society ( DGE) began in 1874 to build their regular route from Dortmund. On August 1, 1875 opened the Coesfeld station ( Westphalia ) at the end of the section of Dülmen East. Just two months later, a further section to Gronau was inaugurated, from the railhead was a through station.
The railway line pan - Eickelmann Hamburg - Cologne -Minden Railway Company was of high national importance, the Rheinische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft ( RhE ) planned their railway Duisburg- Quakenbruck as competition. With the completion of this route on 1 July 1879 Coesfelder station became a junction station. The route crossed the Rhine while the range of DGE originally south of Coesfeld.
1880 the first RhE was nationalized in 1903 then came the DGE as one of the last ( nominally ) private railway companies to the Prussian State Railways ( PSE). This had already begun at the turn of the century to build a railway from Empel - Rees to Borken. On October 1, 1904 Coesfeld has been reached, the new route crossed the two existing turn south of the station. The ongoing construction to Billerbeck was until March 1, 1908 with the last section to Havixbeck the route was then completed on 1 May 1908.
The original held in timber station building was demolished in 1910 and replaced by the new building which still exists.
In the second half of the 20th century the number of passengers in Westmünsterland went back. None of the routes had ever played a larger, national role. First, the passenger was set on the western branch of Isselburg - Anholt to Coesfeld the recent railway line on 26 May 1974. Ten years later, the passenger followed on the northern section of Coesfeld to Rheine the Rhine route.
In the early 1990s began several reconstructions of the railway tracks. As of 28 August 1993, the exit from the station Coesfelder direction Ahaus ( VzG 2100) was realigned. The main track of the tree mountain train to Münster ( VzG 2265 ) was decommissioned by Lutum route change on November 13, 1994 put into operation in return main track to Rheine ( VzG 2273 ) up to this point again. The section from Lutum to St. Arnold was then completely shut down on 1 January 1996 and in the meantime partly degraded.
Now there was neither on the web nor mountains tree on the railway line Duisburg- Quakenbruck continuous passenger traffic. The elaborate crossing-free southern exit out of the station had thus become superfluous. The exit direction Dülmen ( VzG 2100) was moved to 30 November 1997 on the route of the former route to Borken ( VzG 2265 ).
2008, the construction of the interlocking Coesfeld ( Westphalia ) Cf, an electronic signal box type SIMIS D and DSB 2000. This took over in the following years to 2012, the functions of the three mechanical interlockings in Coesfeld, as well as the remote control of railway stations Steinfurt- Steinfurt (26. October 2008), the Old mountain (9 November 2008), Gronau ( Westphalia ) and Ochtrup (both October 12, 2008 ), Beelen, Telgte and Warendorf (all three October 26, 2009 ), Ahaus and Epe ( Westphalia ) ( 22 November 2010), and most recently Billerbeck and Havixbeck (29 January 2012).
After carried out for 6.5 million euro renovation, in the course of which the old tunnel is replaced by a new underpass installed three lifts and tracks were laid, the Coesfeld station is today a modern, accessible station. It was officially inaugurated on 18 January 2013, the presence of NRW Minister of Transport Groschek.
