In the construction of the Württemberg Central Railway from Stuttgart to Esslingen Obertürkheim received a breakpoint. With its commissioning on November 7, 1845, he was thus the third station of the Royal Württemberg State Railways.
In order to strengthen the foundation of the single-storey station building had to be removed at Ailenberg earth. Later they increased the building to another floor. It also got both left and right side of a wing. The upper floor occupied by the station master on the ground floor was located next to the waiting room also from 1855 to 1899, a post and telegraph office, which was responsible for the communities Obertürkheim Uhlbach and Hedelfingen.
Early as 1852 built the state railway the route section of the Eastern Railway from Cannstatt to Plochingen of double track. With the dawn of industrialization in the wine community, the station expanded in 1868 to a goods shed with a loading dock.

The increasing rail traffic made an enlargement of the station inevitable. The station building was no longer adequate. For the construction of the Directorate of State Railways commissioned the architect Martin Mayer, who also designed the reception building, completed in 1915 Cannstatt. In 1914, construction began.

On 14 October 1931, the Reichsbahn placed the four-tracked expansion from Cannstatt to Esslingen done. After the electrification of the Eastern Railway began on 15 May 1933, the Stuttgart suburb of traffic to Esslingen. The ridership of the tram line 26 declined by. As of July 10, 1944 the trolleybus Esslingen am Neckar replaced the tram between Obertürkheim and Oberesslingen. Its current 101 line since then connects the Obertürkheim station with the Lerch fields in Oberesslingen.
