Münchner Nordring
Munich North Ring (german: Münchner Nordring), section of which are only used by freight trains, is a railway bypass on the northern edge of the Bavarian state capital of Munich. The line’s importance for freight also partly arises from its access to the Munich North marshalling yard (''Rangierbahnhof München Nord''). Route The North Ring begins at Olching station and initially runs north from Groebenzell to the Munich district of Allach-Untermenzing, Allach. There are links with the Nuremberg–Munich high-speed railway, Nuremberg–Ingolstadt–Munich high-speed line before the line passes Munich North marshalling yard. Near the marshalling yard's exit tracks there is a connecting curve to Moosach (District of Munich), Moosach on the line to München-Laim station, Laim. Similarly, there is a connection to the Munich–Regensburg railway running to the north. To the east of the marshalling yard, the line runs along the northern edge of the Olympic Village, Munich, Olympic Vi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
15 KV AC Railway Electrification
Railway electrification systems using at are used on transport railways in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden, and Norway. The high voltage enables high power transmission with the lower frequency reducing the losses of the traction motors that were available at the beginning of the 20th century. Railway electrification in late 20th century tends to use AC systems which has become the preferred standard for new railway electrifications but extensions of the existing networks are not completely unlikely. In particular, the Gotthard Base Tunnel (opened on 1 June 2016) still uses 15 kV, 16.7 Hz electrification. Due to high conversion costs, it is unlikely that existing systems will be converted to despite the fact that this would reduce the weight of the on-board step-down transformers to one third that of the present devices. History The first electrified railways used series-wound DC motors, first at 600 V and then 1,500 V. Areas with 3 kV ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It is part of a large rail precinct, including Munich Laim marshalling yard. It has three platform tracks and is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 3 station.

On 30 August 1894, the station was opened as the temporary terminus of the double-track suburban railway, which connected the Central Station with Laim parallel to the long-distance railway tracks. On 1 May 1895, the extension of the suburban railway to Pasing station went into operation. The station consisted of a double-track island platform, located to the west of the later S-Bahn island platform, and a main service building.

München Trudering Station
Munich-Trudering station is an interchange station of the Munich S-Bahn and the Munich U-Bahn in the borough of Trudering-Riem in the Bavarian capital of Munich. History Trudering station was opened on 15 October 1871 at the same time as the Munich–Rosenheim railway. On 1 October 1938, Trudering station was renamed as ''Bahnhof München-Trudering'' (Munich–Trudering station). The former station building was demolished in the 1970s. On 28 May 1972 it has been integrated into the network of the Munich S-Bahn. Since 1979, the S-Bahn has had its own tracks through Trudering. The U-Bahn station was opened on line U 2 under Truderinger Straße on 29 May 1999.

Munich–Rosenheim Railway
The Munich–Rosenheim railway is a 65 kilometre-long double-track main line of the German railways. It connects Munich Hauptbahnhof with Rosenheim station, where it connects with the Rosenheim–Salzburg railway, which connects with the line to Vienna at Salzburg, and the line to Kufstein, which continues to Innsbruck and the Brenner line to Italy. The line is part of the " Main line for Europe", connecting Paris with Bratislava and Budapest and the almost identical line 17 of Trans-European Transport Networks (TEN-T). It is part of the line 1 of TEN-T. It is electrified at 15 kV, 16.7 Hz. It was opened between Munich and Rosenheim in 1871. History Already in the 1860s, it was clear that the Mangfall Valley Railway (''Mangfalltalbahn''), which had been opened between 1854 and 1857, could no longer absorb the increase in traffic on the main lines towards Austria. Duplication of the Mangfall Valley Railway was not an option due to its twisty and hilly route. In addition ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Munich–Mühldorf Railway
The Munich–Mühldorf railway is a 74 .8 km long main line in the German state of Bavaria, which opened on 1 May 1871. It runs from Munich East station via Markt Schwaben and Dorfen to Mühldorf. The travel time between Munich East and Mühldorf is currently about an hour. The track is one of the 18 bottlenecks with capacity problems identified under the ''Bundesschienenwegeausbaugesetz'' (Federal Railway Infrastructure Development Act) of 1993. In particular the section between Markt Schwaben and Ampfing is one of the busiest single-track lines in Germany. About 3 million tonnes is handled on this single-track, non-electrified route; this is more than one percent of Germany's total rail freight task and in 2015 it will probably be more than two percent. Current operations The 21.1 km of line between Munich East and Markt Schwaben is double track and electrified. Between München-Riem West junction and Markt Schwaben the Munich S-Bahn does not have separate tracks and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bundesautobahn 94
is an autobahn in southern Germany. When completed, it will connect Munich with Passau. Currently, only the parts Munich- Burghausen, and a small section in Malching have been built. Between Burghausen and Simbach am Inn, there is a 14 kilometer, two-lane section that is signed as Bundesstraße 12. Provisions for an upgrade to A 94 exist here. The route between Forstinning and Heldenstein was the subject of a decades-long debate. History In the original plans for the A 94, the section between Simbach and Passau was not planned. Instead, the A 94 was supposed to cross the Inn to the Austrian border, at which point it would continue through the Innviertel to Ried im Innkreis and connect to the Austrian A 8 towards Vienna. This path would have decreased travel time from Munich to Vienna compared to the route via Salzburg. Provisions for such a routing were built in Simbach and in Ried. However, since Austria didn't want to burden the Innviertel with traffic, the plan was given ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
