Wustermark station

[1] The station is located at the km 30.5 of the Berlin–Lehrte railway on the northern outskirts of Wustermark, about 500 metres north of the centre of the town.

After the Second World War, passenger services on the Lehrte railway to West Berlin was first partially and later completely stopped.

Wustermark became a point for transferring between the passenger trains on the outer ring and the Lehrte railway.

Subsequently, electric and diesel locomotives were exchanged at Wustermark station on express trains between Berlin and Stendal.

The station was originally a passenger stop for trains on the Lehrte railway between Berlin, Rathenow and Stendal.

[5] After the First World War a denser suburban service was introduced between Berlin and Wustermark with trains on this section running about every half-hour.

The express service from Berlin on the Lehrte Railway was also resumed, but the trains passed through Wustermark station without stopping.

During its construction, passenger services was suspended towards Rathenow and Nauen and replaced by buses running every two hours towards Berlin from December 1995.

The Nauen line had a separate platform on the northern side of the tracks which was connected by a pedestrian bridge.

[7] With the construction of the high-speed line after 1995, the station was completely rebuilt and the infrastructure of the bypass railway including the link towards Nauen were demolished.

The platform can be reached via a pedestrian bridge from the forecourt to the south of the tracks, but it no longer has a station building.
