There is also a heavily used goods siding which branches off to the refineries that are located in the eastern part of the city.

These trains are detached in the station and shunted into the car manufacturer's industrial sidings.

This splits again at the edge of the town into various goods sidings leading to two oil refineries and the InterPark industrial estate.

Tracks 4 and 5 belong to the new high-speed route and only trains of the Munich-Nuremberg Express stop here.

In the near future, however, a conversion is planned which should see the town of Ingolstadt purchasing the station building from Deutsche Bahn, and converting it into a cultural centre.

It was announced that the necessary real estate would be bought in September or October 2007 and that work would begin in spring 2008.
