History

In Osterfeld there was in the heyday of the railway stations of four different railway companies:

• As first the Cologne -Minden Railway Company in 1873 achieved the construction of their railway Ruhrort -Dortmund (called " Emscher Valley Railway " ) Osterfeld and built the Osterfeld CME station, today the Oberhausen-Osterfeld Süd.
• 1879 built the Rheinische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft their station Osterfeld RhE, today the Oberhausen-Osterfeld North, where their railway from Mülheim -Hot leads into the the same time built railway line Duisburg- Quakenbruck.
• Also in 1879 opened the Royal Westphalian Railway Company its railway Welver - Sterkrade ( also called " Emscher Valley Railway "). The Westphalian station was until the completion of the last part of the piece after Sterkrade a year later endpoint of the segment, which can be vaguely seen on aerial photographs today, however, the station was completely demolished. Today, only the Westfälische Straße at the former railway station.
• 1880 finally collides with the Bergisch- Märkischen Railway Company added the last of the four major railway companies. Your station on the railway line Bochum-Essen/Oberhausen was in the range of today's marshalling yard, a reminder of him only the märkische road.

After the Prussian State Railway had taken over the ( nominally ) private railway companies, they built the large marshalling yard 1891 Oberhausen- Osterfeld Süd, which in 1905 was the starting point of the freight line to Hamm.
