Trains at Essen-Kray Süd with class 101, Eurocity, ICEs, Flixtrain, Desiro HC, and FLIRT's

Essen-Kray Süd is a stop in the south of the Essen district of Kray, and is located on the railway line between Bochum and Essen. It was opened in 1896 as Kray-Süd train station. After Kray was incorporated into Essen, the station was renamed Essen-Kray Süd in 1950. In 1974, the station was downgraded to a halt after all switches and sidings were removed. Today it consists of two tracks, each with a side platform. If you look at the shape of platform 2, you can see that track 3 used to be where the noise barrier is. Both platforms are connected by an underpass with stairs. There are no elevators here and there is only a roof on platform 2. There are no plans to modernize the stop as it is to be closed as part of the Rhine-Ruhr Express project.
