The eastern part of the station in Buir on the upgraded line Cologne-Düren (ABS 4) seen from the western access to the temporary platform on 8 December 2001. Before the new tracks go into service, another temporary platform will be built on the left. The platform on the right will then be used for trains towards Cologne. As it is between a distant signal and a main signal, a distant signal repeater is needed. The platform at the old track is in front of the distant signal, so the repeater is already installed at the new track. It is connected with the signalbox and indicates the aspects of the main signal.
