Tips
The station was put into operation on 16 May 1867. At that time it was the endpoint of a railway line to Erfurt in the north. In 1879 the route followed to Plaue-Ilmenau and in 1894 the line to Saalfeld. The railway Plaue-Ritschenhausen, which crosses the Thuringian Forest, was completed in 1884 (Wikipedia).

At the time of the Reichsbahn, Arnstadt station was of great importance. The route from Erfurt to Arnstadt was electrified. In addition to passenger trains, there was also heavy freight traffic, especially in the direction of Saalfeld. All trains had to be converted to steam or diesel locomotives. Today the station has lost its importance. Only regional trains operate. The catenary was dismantled again.
