It is located very centrally in the centre of the town of Kirchhain in the German state of Hesse. Formerly, the station was the starting point of the Ohm Valley Railway ((ドイツ語:Ohmtalbahn)) to Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden and the Wohra Valley Railway (''Wohratalbahn'') to Gemünden (Wohra). The station is classified by Deutsche Bahn (DB) as a category 4 station.〔 ==History== The station was opened along with the Main-Weser Railway on 4 March 1850 under the name of ''Kirchhain (Bz Kassel)''. The continuous connection from Kassel to Frankfurt was opened on 15 May 1852. Before that trains only ran between Kassel and Giessen. The northern section of the Ohm Valley Railway (Kirchhain–Nieder-Ofleiden) was opened as the Kirchhain District Railway (''Kirchhainer Kreisbahn'') by the Prussian state railways on 1 April 1900. Exactly one year later, it was extended to ''Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden'' station on the Prussian state railway's Gießen–Fulda line (Vogelsberg Railway, ''Vogelsbergbahn''). Passenger services on the Ohm Valley Railway were abandoned on 31 May 1980. The line was closed between Nieder-Ofleiden and Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden on 28 September 1991 and finally dismantled in 1999. Freight and special passenger services continue between Kirchhain and Nieder-Ofleiden. Reactivation of the whole line between Kirchhain and Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden is under discussion. On 1 May 1914, the Wohra Valley Railway was opened to Gemünden via Rauschenberg. As at 28 May 1972, passenger services, which had fallen sharply, were abandoned altogether. Freight traffic has not operated on the line since 19 December 1981. On 31 December 1981, the entire Wohra Valley Railway was reduced to a 200 m long section in Kirchhain, which is now used as a siding. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kirchhain (Bz Kassel) station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
