The train services are operated by Deutsche Bahn as part of the Hanover S-Bahn.
The station was opened in 1906 together with the then new branch of the Hanover-Brunswick railway[3] and was rebuilt twice in the 1990s, in particular to accommodate the Hanover S-Bahn services which were established in 1998.
[4] The tracks of the old Hanover-Brunswick line which now forms part of the Hanover freight bypass railway pass a few metres to the north of Ahlten station and are flanked by low-height auxiliary platforms which were used when trains had to be diverted due to track work.
