Niederhöchstadt station

Niederhöchstadt station was opened by the Kronberg Railway Company (German: Cronberger Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft, using the old spelling of Kronberg) along with the line to Kronberg on 1 November 1874. The station building dates from the turn of the century in 1900 and is a heritage-listed building. It is a two-storey brick building with a shallow hipped roof with a small tented roof covered with dormers. The platform side of the building has a complex structure with a central projection covered by a gable, wall panels and cornices. A polygonal bay window was later added on the ground floor for supervisory personnel and an annex was built on the north side.[4]

On 22 December 1970, the first section of the Limes railway was opened between Niederhöchstadt and the Schwalbach Limes station on the edge of Eschborn and opened as a shuttle service. Almost 2 years later, on 6 November 1972, the gap to Bad Soden was closed. Up to that time Bad Soden only had a rail connection via the Soden Railway to Frankfurt-Höchst, which is now operated as Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund line RB 13.

Since 28 May 1978, line S3 of the Rhine-Main S-Bahn has operated over the Limes Railway, and line S4 has operated over the Kronberg Railway, at first running only to Frankfurt Central Station. They now terminate at Langen (S4) and Darmstadt Central Station (S3).

The station is served by S-Bahn lines S3 and S4, running from Bad Soden (S3) and Kronberg (S4) to Frankfurt Central underground station, Frankfurt South, Neu-Isenburg, Langen (terminus of S4) and Darmstadt (terminus of S3).
