The station of Düren at the end of the upgraded line from Cologne
(<a href="http://www-users.rwth-aachen.de/christoph.schmitz2/strecke/strecke.html">ABS 4</a>)
seen on 5 August 2001. At this new platform the S-Bahn (urban trains) to
Cologne/Bonn and the Euregiobahn to Aachen/M&ouml;nchengladbach will meet,
making the neccessary changing for throughgoing passengers as easy as possible.
Note the step in the lower part, the left track will be placed higher than the
right because the class 423 EMUs of the S-Bahn (right track) require 96 cm
platform height above the rails while the Talent DMUs of the Euregiobahn (left
track) require 76 cm for a stepless entrance.
