Velbert-Nierenhof station is located in the city of Velbert in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. It is on the Wuppertal-Vohwinkel–Essen-Überruhr line and is served by S-Bahn line S 9.
The area of Nierenhof station was the location of the terminus of the Deil Valley Coal Railway , the line of the first German railway company , which was laid next to the Deilbach from Nierenhof to Hinsbeck to serve the coal mines in the Deilbach valley, including the mine in Nierenhof. The 820 mm narrow-gauge railway with iron rails was to be steam-powered, which would have made it the first steam railway in Germany. Nevertheless, the concession issued by the district government did not initially allow steam operation, even though successful trial runs were carried out. After its opening by Prince Wilhelm of Prussia on 20 September 1831, the railway was initially operated as a horse-drawn tramway for freight, although occasional passenger services soon began. During its extension to Steele and Vohwinkel, which started in 1844 and was completed in 1847, the railway was converted to standard gauge and subsequently operated by steam. This involved converting the terminus at Nierenhof into a through station with its own signal box.
