History

The Main-Lahn Railway was opened to Lindenholzhausen in 1875 and the whole line was completed to Limburg in 1877. The initially single-track Haltepunkt (halt) of Lindenholzhausen was opened on 1 February 1875 together with the Eschhofen–Niederselters section. The duplication of the line began in 1911 and it was completed in 1913. As a result, there were two directional platforms tracks in Lindenholzhausen. The Niedernhausen–Limburg section, including Lindenholzhausen station, was electrified in 1986.

Infrastructure

Platforms and tracks

Lindenholzhausen station has two platform tracks:

• track 1 on the main platform (height: 34 cm, length: 301 m),[3] served by RB 21/RB 22 to Limburg;
• track 2 on the island platform (height: 34 cm, length: 235 m),[3] served by RB 21 to Niedernhausen/Wiesbaden and RB 22 to Frankfurt.

The platforms are separated by a level crossing, which provides the only connection between them. Track 2 lies south of the level crossing and track 1 north of the level crossing.
