Ditzingen station

Ditzingen station is in the town of Ditzingen in the German state of Baden-Württemberg, 7.7 kilometres from the start of the Württemberg Black Forest railway at Zuffenhausen and is part of the Stuttgart S-Bahn network.

When, in 1865, the parliament of Württemberg decided to build a railway line through the Glems district, a connection to Ditzingen was regarded as assured.

The line branched off the Northern Railway (German: Nordbahn) in Zuffenhausen and, on 23 September 1868, the first regular train reached Ditzingen station, 300 metres south of the village.

Each day servants of Hemmingen manor delivered milk and sent it to Stuttgart for sale.

In the 1960s planning for the Stuttgart S-Bahn began in order to improve suburban services.
