History

In the capital of the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg, rail transport began with the distance from Oldenburg to Bremen Delmenhorst the Oldenburg State Railway on 15 July 1867.

Also in 1867 was funded on 3 September by the Prussian state railway connection from Oldenburg to Heppens, later to Wilhelmshaven, built. Traffic was also operated by the Oldenburg State Railways, which in 1913 Prussia bought from the route, which led to enormous stresses of the state budget. In the years 1898-1908, this section has been expanded to double track.

Two years later, on June 15, 1869 was followed by the railway line Oldenburg- Leer.

Recovery of the Oldenburg State Railways railroad Oldenburg -Osnabrück was opened on 15 October 1875. From her chained in Ahlhorn 1885, the connection to Vechta from. The well-known because of the marshy subsoil under the name rubber track branch line Oldenburg - Ohmstede - Etzhorn - Brake was taken in 1896 in operation.

The first Oldenburg station was planned on today's Cecilia place. 1868 but it was found that the proposed construction for the growing demands would be too small. Therefore, the project was never realized. Instead served a converted freight shed the inhabitants of the residence city for twelve years as a train station.

On May 21, 1879 finally with the Central Station of the first "real" passenger station Oldenburg inaugurated. He was on the Lehmplacken near the horse market, which is also the site of the present railway station. The neo-Gothic building was designed by the famous architect Conrad Wilhelm Hase. He was considered one of the greatest romantic railway buildings in Germany. In the immediate vicinity were at the docks attached shed for storage of peat, with some locomotives were operated.

After the construction of the station was approved in its present form, it was originally intended again a temporary train station, which had rather the character of a provincial railway station.

Today's Oldenburg Hauptbahnhof was opened after four years of construction on August 3, 1915 without major occasions after he had been made ​​available to the public on August 1st. The Grand Duke visited the station along with his daughters until August 4. The magnificent Art Nouveau building was built Friedrich Mette transition as a replacement for the old Central Station by the architect. Was for the Grand Duke of Oldenburg is a separate building, called Prince Hall, intended to climb the trains. As part of the new building the tracks were raised by about 3.25 m.

During the construction of the JadeWeserPort in Wilhelmshaven is to be expected with an increased freight train traffic on the routes Bremen -Oldenburg and Wilhelmshaven- Oldenburg. The route to Wilhelmshaven is electrified by 2018. The track as single-track sections have been expanded to double track until the end of 2012. This expansion was originally promised in August 2006 by the then CEO of Deutsche Bahn AG, Hartmut Mehdorn was until the year 2010. The increased volume of traffic between Oldenburg and Bremen is a limiting factor for the Regio -S -Bahn line 3; as such, RS3 line runs only every hour. As compensation, the ICs are released on the route between Bremen and North dike Mole end of 2013 for the supplement-free use with all travel tickets of transport, the clock is increased to a two- hour intervals to Emden, operated by double-deck trains and extended to the subway stops in Hude.
