Göbelnrod (German: Bahnhof Göbelnrod) is a railway station in Göbelnrod, Hesse, Germany. The former through station has been converted to a flag stop.

History[edit]

39 years after the commissioning of the first section of the Vogelsberg Railway from Giessen to Grünberg on 29 December 1869, Göbelnrod got a train station. It was opened on 1 July 1908. The first schedule provided nine stops: five towards Fulda, and four in the direction of Gießen.

In the 1970s, due to a structural reform, the personnel were withdrawn. Even the closure associated with the demolition of the building has been up for discussion.

The station[edit]

The station is located on the Vogelsberg Railway (Gießen - Fulda). It is served by RB services operated by Deutsche Bahn.

In 1908 the building was erected and the station was opened.

For the State Conservation Office Hesse, the station building is a cultural monument for its rail traffic-historical significance and for historical reasons.

Rail services[edit]

The station is served daily by hourly Regionalbahn (RB 45) services on the Limburg (Lahn)WeilburgWetzlarGießenAlsfeld (Oberhess)Fulda route. In the peak, additional Regionalbahn services run on the Gießen–Grünberg–Mücke route.[4]
