History
The breakpoint was built to connect the districts of Rotenbühl, Kaninchenberg, Sankt Arnual and Eschberg to the local rail network.[3] However, it has lost importance over time. In 1997, platform tracks 3 and 4 were closed for passenger services.[4] Track 3 was converted into a terminating track.
Architecture
The station has been classified as a Haltepunkte (roughly “halt”) since 1960. The entrance building is about four metres high and nine metres wide. It has an entrance to tracks 1 and 2, but the entrance to platform 3 and 4 is closed.

gollark: Apparently yggdrasil gets around issues with memory using some sort of strange algorithm involving trees and by dropping the requirement to always find the best available path.
gollark: There are some experiments like yggdrasil and cjdns, but I don't know how well they scale beyond the few thousand random people testing it.
gollark: Apparently doing not-much-configuration mesh routing is a very hard problem, and it seems like the existing protocols are designed in ways which make it annoying too.
