Although the city has mostly dispensed with the appendage of "Taunus" in its name the station still officially retains it, although signs on the newest platform and Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund maps do not include it.

"[5] It ran a single track from the Usinger Bahnhof (“Usingen station”) in Bad Homburg via Seulberg to Friedrichsdorf and continued via Köppern into the Taunus.

Its construction lead to the upgrading of the whole line from Frankfurt via Friedrichsdorf to Friedberg in order to increase its capacity, at the personal request of Emperor Wilhelm II, including its duplication from 1907 until 1910.

[6] In addition, seven years later a relay interlocking was built in Bad Homburg, controlling the area from Weißkirchen[7] and extended to Friedrichsdorf in 1978.

Since the take-over of operations by the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (Rhine-Main Transport Association, RMV), no Taunus Railway services now terminate in Friedrichsdorf.

The other service on the Taunus Railway (RMV line 15) continues to Bad Homburg, or—in the peak hour—Frankfurt Central Station.

A vending machine was placed in a converted shipping container on the platform as a replacement for the ticket counter in the entrance building.

The services operated from the kiosk have been moved back into the building and it is intended that the container on the platform will be removed.
