In the northeast is the station’s parking lot; north of it Reuttier Straße crosses the tracks.

Both the bus station and the parking lot are built on the roof of the cut and cover tunnels that the rail tracks run through.

The first train arrived at Neu-Ulm station after 25 December 1853; this was officially opened on 26 September together with the Neu-Ulm–Burgau section of the Bavarian Maximilian’s Railway.

Since the Danube bridge had not yet been completed, a droshky service operated between Ulm and Neu-Ulm station.

[5] On 12 October 1862, the Iller Valley Railway was opened from Neu-Ulm to Memmingen with four trains running daily and it was extended to Kempten on 1 June 1863.

From 1931 to 1933, the Maximilian’s Railway from Ulm to Augsburg was electrified by Deutsche Reichsbahn and it was opened for electrical operations on 25 April 1933.

During the invasion of U.S. troops the railway bridge over the Danube between Ulm and Neu-Ulm was blown up on 24 April 1945.

At the end of March 2007, the second track at Neu-Ulm Finninger Straße was put into service, largely removing delays caused by trains waiting to run to or from Memmingen.

The servicing of locomotives of the Bavarian Maximilian and Neu-Ulm–Kempten railways, which was previously carried at a depot at Ulm station, was then transferred to Neu-Ulm.

During World War II, the depot was severely damaged along with 16 steam locomotives on 4 March 1945, but after rebuilding it resumed its previous tasks.

As part of Neu-Ulm 21, the push button interlocking was decommissioned on 17 March 2007 and demolished shortly thereafter.

As a substitute on 18 March 2007, an electronic interlocking in Ulm, built as Lorenz class L90, remotely controls the Neu-Ulm area.

Neu-Ulm station is served by the Regional-Express service between Ulm and Munich (Fugger-Express) hourly with electric multiple units of class 440.

The other trains from Ulm to Kempten and Oberstdorf pass through Neu-Ulm station hourly without stopping.

It is served by bus routes 5 and 7 of Stadtwerke Ulm/Neu-Ulm (a company providing municipal services in Ulm and Neu-Ulm) and regional buses.

In the Second World War, the route of tram line 2 was damaged in an air raid on 17 December 1944 and operations were stopped.
