DB Regio NRW operates Regionalbahn service RB 24 (Eifelbahn) on the Eifel Railway at hourly intervals using class 644 (Bombardier Talent) diesel multiple units in sets of one to three vehicles at speeds of up to 120 km/h.
This renovation included the establishment of a central platform, which can be accessed through a new pedestrian underpass equipped with stairs and two lifts.
The so-called Kaiserbahnhof in Brühl-Kierberg is considered one of the most beautiful railway station building in Germany.
Emperor William II was responsible for its particularly elaborate design, because the station served as a stopover on his annual visits to the autumn military manoeuvres in the Eifel.
The Emperor rode in a carriage on the road from the station to the imperial palace at Brühl, where he stayed.
