History

The station was opened by the Hamburg-Bergedorf Railway Company in 1842 to serve the commuter rail in Hamburg's south-eastern quarters. On 1 June 1958 Billwerder-Moorfleet station was electrified and integrated into the Hamburg S-Bahn network.[4]

Before the Berlin-Hamburg railway was re-built at the beginning of the 1990s, the station had an island platform. One side of it was cut off, because the space was needed for the railway line and a new container terminal, and the rest was changed into a side platform. On the other side of the S-Bahn track, in front of the station building, a new side platform was built as a replacement, so today the station has two side platforms. Also there was a signal box, which was demolished along with the island platform.[4]

Station layout

There are some places to lock a bicycle and some parking spots. Only the platform in Hamburg city direction is fully accessible for handicapped persons, as there is no lift at the footbridge leading to the platform in Bergedorf direction. There are no lockers.[1]
