Floating railway

            Lage, Architektur und Geschichte

Bahnsteig des alten Schwebebahnhofs (2008)
Die Haltestelle Völklinger Straße befindet sich in Unterbarmen, in der Nähe des Polizeipräsidiums und der Arbeitsagentur.

Die Schwebebahnstation Völklinger Straße ist eine von drei Stationen (die anderen beiden sind Landgericht und Werther Brücke), die originalgetreu wieder im Jugendstil aufgebaut wurden. Sie vertrat wie alle Barmer Stationen (mit Ausnahme von Werther Brücke und Alter Markt) als Gegenentwurf zum Elberfelder Standard-Schwebebahnhof den Typus ohne Satteldach und nur mit Überdachung der Bahnsteige. Seit Umbau der Stationen Wupperfeld, Adlerbrücke und Loher Brücke ist sie neben der Station Landgericht der letzte verbliebene Vertreter dieser Art. Sie wurde von Herbst 2011 bis Mitte 2012 demontiert und formidentisch wieder aufgebaut.
Location, architecture and history

Platform of the old floating station (2008)
The Völklinger Straße stop is located in Unterbarmen, close to the police headquarters and the employment agency.

The suspended railway station Völklinger Straße is one of three stations (the other two are Landgericht and Werther Brücke), which were rebuilt faithfully in Art Nouveau style. Like all Barmer stations (with the exception of Werther Brücke and Alter Markt), it represented the type without a saddle roof and only with roofing of the platforms as a counter-draft to the Elberfeld standard floating station. Since the reconstruction of the stations Wupperfeld, Adlerbrücke and Loher Brücke, it is the last remaining representative of this kind besides the station Landgericht. It was dismantled from autumn 2011 to mid-2012 and rebuilt in a form-identical manner.
