History
The Grand Duchy of Baden State Railway, which operated railways in Baden from 1840 to 1920, when it was integrated into Deutsche Reichsbahn, commenced operations of the Baden Odenwald railway between Heidelberg, Meckenheim, Aglasterhausen and Mosbach on 23 October 1862. With the opening of the Neckar Valley Railway on the Neckargemünd–Neckarsteinach–Eberbach–Neckarelz–Mosbach route on 24 May 1879, the Meckenheim–Neckarelz route became more and more neglected. The Aglasterhausen–Obrigheim section was closed at the timetable change on 25 September 1971. Südwestdeutsche Verkehrs-Aktiengesellschaft (SWEG) took over the line from Deutsche Bundesbahn under a fixed 20-year lease on 1 January 1982.
With the transfer of responsibility for the Elsenz Valley Railway and the Schwarzbach Valley Railway to the Rhine-Neckar S-Bahn, the line was electrified, Aglasterhausen station was completely modernised and a raised platform was installed there. At the same time,the second track (formerly used for loading timber) was removed. The track now ends at a buffer stop.
The original station building still exists and it has been renovated.
Operations
The station is served by line S 51 of the Rhine-Neckar S-Bahn every hour from 5am to midnight, Monday to Friday, with extra trains in the peaks. The extra trains run only between Aglasterhausen and Meckesheim. Class 425 EMUs are used.
