Pirmasens Nord station is a station opened in 1875 seven kilometres north of Pirmasens in the municipality of Thaleischweiler-Fröschen in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. The station is located next to the hamlet of Biebermühle, which it was named after until 1936. It is the main station within the district of Südwestpfalz.HistoryDuring the planning of the Landau–Zweibrücken railway, it was found that building the line via Pirmasens would be difficult. The topography of Pirmasens meant that a station would have to be built far from the city centre and an elaborate tunnel under the city would have been necessary. It was decided to build the line to the north of Pirmasens along the Rodalb and Schwarzenbach rivers. A station was built near the hamlet of Biebermühle and at the same time a branch line was built to Pirmasens (the Biebermühl Railway, Biebermühlbahn).Opening and first few decadesThe station was established on 25 November 1875 with the commissioning of the Annweiler–Zweibrücken section of the Queich Valley Railway (Queichtalbahn). At the same time the branch line to Pirmasens was opened, making the station a railway junction. Its builder, the former Palatinate Railway (Pfalzbahn), was absorbed in 1909 into the Royal Bavarian State Railways (Königliche Bayerische Staats-Eisenbahnen). In 1905, a further branch line was opened to Waldfischbach and the station building became surrounded by rail tracks. In 1913 the station became more important as a junction, as the line to Waldfischbach had been extended to Kaiserslautern.
