Schweinfurt Hauptbahnhof
Schweinfurt Hauptbahnhof is the largest railway station in the Lower Franconian city of Schweinfurt and its transfer hub to the majority of regional buses. In addition to the Hauptbahnhof, the Schweinfurt Mitte and Schweinfurt Stadt stations also lie within the city, closer to the centre, on the Bamberg–Würzburg railway.
Importance
The station is no longer served by long-distance traffic since the introduction of the Interregio line from Stuttgart via Würzburg and Schweinfurt to Erfurt in 2001. It still has an important role, however, in regional and local rail services.There are currently passenger services on the following lines:KBS 803 Bad Kissingen–Gemünden, single-tracked main lineKBS 810 Würzburg–Schweinfurt–Haßfurt–Bamberg, double-tracked main lineKBS 815/570 Schweinfurt–Bad Neustadt –Meiningen /–Erfurt, single-tracked main line
On the single-tracked branch line Kitzingen–Schweinfurt there is still goods traffic between Gochsheim and Schweinfurt, the rest of the line to Kitzingen-Etwashausen is unused.
Links to regional and local services
Schweinfurt Hauptbahnhof is embedded in the Deutsche Bahn network as shown below :Schweinfurt Hbf is a timetable hub, i.e. every hour on the hour trains arrive on the three main lines and depart shortly after the hour again. Included in this system are the three Regional-Express links and the trains of EIB Line 4. There is an hourly service to Würzburg and Bamberg which is achieved by overlapping the two RE lines, and on the routes to Bad Kissingen and Meiningen/Erfurt there is also an hourly service which alternates between RE and EIB trains. On the Würzburg–Bamberg route the frequency of RE trains is supplemented by the use of RegionalBahn services; likewise the EIB Linie 5 Schweinfurt–Gemünden, bolsters the section to Bad Kissingen.
