On August 19, 1898, the Biebertalbahn began passenger traffic between Gießen and Bieber and two months later, on October 20, freight traffic. The railway connection Gießen - Bieber now opened up completely new business areas for the towns on the railway line; not only the transport of ore, lime and tobacco products benefited from it, but also trade between the towns and the city. The market women brought their goods into the city in market baskets and the workplace in Giessen could be reached more easily. In 1965, locomotive 60 had to make its last journey. Two videos look back to 1965:

But nothing can be seen of the train station, or did I just drive past it without noticing it?
