History

Reichsbahn

On October 1, 1920, the German Reichsbahn opened the railway line pipe Echterdingen. The Leinfelden station was located north and out of the 1,000 inhabitants village. The former two-storey reception building with a hipped roof is no longer maintained. The exterior facade of the upper floor was covered with wood shingles.

Also effective October 1, 1920, the Urban Filderbahn ( SFB) took the standard gauge track part of Unteraichen to Leinfelden in operation. In return, she laid quietly the route Unteraichen -Echterdingen. Due to the competition with the Reichsbahn the SFB could not keep track Möhringen Leinfelden long upright and put the total traffic one already on 25 December 1922.

But soon the way over Vaihingen proved to be the less favorable. The local governments of Echterdingen Leinfelden therefore sought talks with the City of Stuttgart, the Reichsbahn and the Stuttgarter Straße AG (SSB ). They asked for the reactivation ( with Umspurung on meter gauge ) and electrification of the line to Möhringen and to the further construction until Echterdingen. With the consent of all parties, work began in the spring of 1927. The completion of the overland tram to Leinfelden on January 2, 1928. Again by the SFB, which merged on 1 January 1934 in the SSB.

After a long construction period, the Reichsbahn could inaugurate the rail line Leinfelden Forest book on June 23, 1928. The city of Stuttgart was planning before the route as a narrow-gauge railway to build up to Tübingen. In Leinfelden a dolly pit for freight wagons should be established.

From 15 to 16 March 1944, the community suffered a heavy air attack. The station building was destroyed. From early April to late May and early October 1944, the Wehrmacht stationed a railway Flak battery in the area of ​​the station. Its purpose was to defend the airport, Stuttgart.

Federal Railroad Time

After the Second World War, a simple single-storey station building was built. The German Federal Railway recorded a decline in passenger numbers on the railway line Stuttgart-Rohr - Neuhausen and on the Siebenmuehlental web. She decided both routes for passenger shut down. This was done on 22 May 1955, the Siebenmuehlental web and on 1 August 1955, the railway line Stuttgart-Rohr - Neuhausen. For freight transport, the distances remained unchanged for the moment.

Leinfelden developed in the 1950s and 1960s into an emerging residential community. The population rose sharply. On April 26, 1965, the Interior Ministry Leinfelden was named town.

In order to create an appropriate center for the young city, a competition was held. The new center Leinfeldens should arise on the vast area of the station. The tram line should continue to run underground.

On January 1, 1975, the city and the communities Leinfelden Echterdingen, Musberg and Stetten joined together on the Fildern the city Leinfelden. After the union, the administration rejected the old plans and suggested a new city center between Leinfelden and Echterdingen.

For the planned S -Bahn Stuttgart, Federal Railroad called for the reactivation of the station Leinfelden. For this purpose they built around the old grounds, tearing the reception building from.

On 1 November 1990, the SSB presented the tram line to Leinfelden on urban rail system to and covered the distance to Echterdingen - place still. On 18 April 1993, the Federal Railroad opened the stretch Oberaichen airport for the S -Bahn lines S2 and S3.

Building

To determine the question of location of the station in the late 1980s, the Federal Railroad planned two variants. On the one realized on the other platforms north of the present large underpass would have been created. Thus, access to the Filderhalle could have been created. South of the Robert Bosch GmbH had received a siding.

The leaders opted for the southern variant. Because the mayor wanted to make the new building as an attraction, it contradicted the scheduled five and a half meter wide pedestrian tunnel. She decided instead to build in a trough construction eleven and a half meters wide underpass. This establishes a connection between Market Street and the Max Long Street. A 80 meter long canopy that makes visible from afar by their height, the transport structure, it spans. The cost of the underpass and the roof took over the city.

Conceived at the Max Long - street freight depot with loading road and rail connection for Bosch, however, found no realization. Leinfelden remained a breakpoint. An unused bridge over the underpass witness to a former plan.

Railway operation

The breakpoint is serviced by lines S2 and S3 of the Stuttgart S-Bahn. Track 1 is the S-Bahn direction Flughafen / Messe, track 2 which direction the pipe.
