Kierberg station

DB Regio NRW operates Regionalbahn service RB 24 (Eifelbahn) on the Eifel Railway at hourly intervals using class 644 (Bombardier Talent) diesel multiple units in sets of one to three vehicles at speeds of up to 120 km/h.^[5][6] Tariffs for services are set by the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Sieg (Rhine-Sieg Transport Association).

The modern station facilities underwent their last renovation from December 2006 until 13 March 2008. This renovation included the establishment of a central platform, which can be accessed through a new pedestrian underpass equipped with stairs and two lifts. Additionally, ticket machines were installed for the convenience of passengers.

The so-called Kaiserbahnhof in Brühl-Kierberg is considered one of the most beautiful railway station building in Germany. It was built in a small park at the end of 1877 on Kaiserstraße, which connects to the inner town of Brühl. Emperor William II was responsible for its particularly elaborate design, because the station served as a stopover on his annual visits to the autumn military manoeuvres in the Eifel. An additional siding was created on the north side of the line for the imperial train. As a result, the Kaiserbahnhof was considered to be a real railway station under the definitions used by the Prussian state railways. The Emperor rode in a carriage on the road from the station to the imperial palace at Brühl, where he stayed. The park surrounding the station is decorated with numerous sculptures on classical themes. The statue of the Rape of Proserpine was allegedly created for one of the Paris world exhibitions.^[7]

Since the 1980s, the station building has housed a restaurant with a beer garden. Beginning in December 2008, the building was gutted, restored and partially rebuilt.
