History

The station was originally opened on 15 December 1846 on the steam railway line to Berlin. Before 29 September 1968, steam trains served the station, which were originally called the S6 line of the HVV network. They were replaced by diesel locomotives for a few months, but already on 1 June 1969 the electrical S-Bahn was extended to Aumühle station.[5]

From 24 May 1994 to 1 June 1997 S-Bahn operation rested behind Bergedorf - the separation of S-Bahn and railway tracks had been completed. For the following five years Reinbek was the terminus of the trains of the S21. On 26 May 2002 the S-Bahn to Aumühle was reopened. Before renovation track 1 (to Hamburg city) was located between two platforms, the northernmost of which was blocked by a fence for several years.[5] Reinbek station was fully renovated afterwards at cost of around €6 million and re-opened on 29 March 2007. 2 lifts are in operation since then.[7]
