Rohrbach (Saar) station is a station in the district of Rohrbach of Sankt Ingbert in the German state of Saarland.

History

The station was opened on 1 September 1895 with the building of the line to bypass the

Paris
in 2008, the western exit curve was eased and the station platform was raised and moved about 50 metres further east. The station building was closed after a long period when no ticket had been sold there.

Until the closure of numerous factories along the railway line in Rohrbach, there was a freight yard and a number of factory sidings, the last of which was closed in 2008. In addition to the three passenger platform tracks, there are two platform tracks under construction.[5]

Infrastructure

In the area of the station there are no services apart from ticket machines. The railway line, which runs approximately east-west, has a pedestrian tunnel under it, but the connection to the platform is provided by a separate tunnel, which, however, connects only towards the centre of the town, which is to the north, so rail passengers exiting to the south must cross the tracks and climb steps twice.
