Schladern (Sieg) is a station on the Sieg Railway in Windeck-Schladern in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The station building was built in 1859 and has monument protection. It was built on a section of the Sieg Railway that was opened by the Cologne-Minden Railway Company (German: Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft, CME) between Eitorf and Wissen on 1 August 1861.[3] It has two platform tracks and is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 5 station.
The station building, which was no longer occupied by the railway, was purchased in 2002 by the Wirtschaftsförderungs- und Entwicklungsgesellschaft Windeck (Windeck business development and development company), resold and rented out after renovation. In addition to offices, it currently houses a café and a municipal tourist office. There is also a pedelec charging station and an ATM at the station. The stop is used by 15,000 passengers annually.[4]
The station is served by S-Bahn S 12 services from Köln-Ehrenfeld (Horrem in the peak) to Au (Sieg) and S19 services on week days from Düren to Au (Sieg). The S12 services operate hourly, but the S19 services are less frequent.[5]
