Three of the attractions of The Industrial Heritage Trail Rhine-Main (Route der Industriekultur Rhein-Main), which links tourist attractions related to the industrial heritage of the Rhine Main Area, are located at Hauptbahnhof: The station was opened on 15 July 1858 as Bingerbrück station along with the first section of the Nahe Valley Railway.

The tombstone of Annaius, a member of the cohors IV Delmatarum, shows a detailed aspect of Roman weapons and clothing dating back to the first half of the 1st century.

This railway bridge, connecting Bingerbrück and Rudesheim, was built in the years 1913 to 1915 and destroyed during the Second World War.

[7] The mechanical interlocking of Bingerbrück Ostturm was built in 1920 and was responsible for setting the points and signals on the Rhine line and for shunting towards Mainz.

[8] The Hauptbahnhof was remodelled for the Rhineland-Palatinate State Garden Show (Rheinland-pfälzischen Landesgartenschau), which took place in Bingen in 2008.

The disused marshalling and freight yards, which covered an area of 150,000 square metres and had two humps, were removed and the site was integrated into the Garden Show.

[9][10] In addition, the Bingerbrück Ostturm signal box, which was abandoned in 1996, was renovated for the show and converted into a museum.

The Bingerbrück Kreuzbach (Bkb) signal box is located to the north of Bingen Hbf near the former southern hump of the marshalling yard.

At its peak, the signal box was staffed by five people who were particularly responsible for the marshalling and operation of trains at the freight yard.

[12] In addition, it is now one of the cultural monuments listed in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley.

In April 2009, Bingen town council requested that the federal and state governments allocate funds for the preservation of the World Heritage Site towards the restoration of the signal box.

The RB 65 service, beginning or ending in Bingen Hbf and running to or from Kaiserslautern, normally stop on track 203.

[1] As part of the Rhineland-Palatinate integrated regular interval timetable (Rheinland-Pfalz-Taktes) for 2015, it was proposed that the Trans-Hunsrück Railway (Hunsrückquerbahn) be reactivated and a rail connection provided to Frankfurt-Hahn Airport.
