Stommeln station

In 1999, the siding, which had previously been used for special trains or for loading operations, was removed at the north end of the station and replaced by an expansion of the neighbouring warehouse and a construction material business.

In April 2008, the station building, which was built in the 1970s, was also closed; since then the line has been remotely controlled from the Duisburg operating center.

The position of the local dispatcher, who had previously been based in the signal box, was abolished at that time.

Today, there are some railway tracks and buildings with loading ramps on the site of a construction material business.

The freight yard was mainly used for the loading of steel parts, which were produced in the former rolling mill in neighbouring Pulheim.
