History
From the first opening to decommissioning
On October 1, 1920, the German Reichsbahn took over the railway line from pipe to Echterdingen in operation. They branched off south of pipe from the Gäubahn and reached by crossing the Dürrlewangwalds Oberaichen. The breakpoint was behind the railway crossing the road to Unteraichen ( today's Raiffeisen Street ), at the former route 19 kilometers Equipped he was with a simple shelter made of wood. Approximately 1927 opened the restaurant to the train station on the opposite side.
After Filderstadt were other villages by tram and bus connections to Stuttgart and Esslingen Degerloch connected, the new rail line proved already in the first two decades after its opening as unprofitable. On August 1, 1955 finally drove the last passenger train to Neuhausen.
Reactivation
When designing a new transport concept for Stuttgart and the surrounding area in the 1960s, was planning the transport expert Professor Walther Lambert partial reactivation of the railway line to create a commuter rail connection to the airport. The implementation of his proposal began in 1984.
The route was moved in the area of Dürrlewangwalds partially. It was the doubling and electrification. At the completion of the section Leinfelden airport there were delays. For this reason, the Municipality of Leinfelden asked the German Federal Railways to allow the S- Bahn trains to Oberaichen at least as quickly as possible. The thus created higher operating costs funded the State of Baden -Wuerttemberg.
On 29 May 1989, the first S -Bahn line S2 drove on the preliminary single-track re-opened section to Oberaichen. A newly established bus line connected the rest of the city with the breakpoint. Just four years later, on 18 April 1993 took over as planned, the Stuttgart airport station to function as a terminal.
