Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB), which was responsible for railway operations from 1949, assigned the station to the railway division of Mainz, which was responsible for all railway lines within the newly created state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The reconstruction of the Rhine bridge was discussed in the 1950s.
Above all, the military had an interest in the reconstruction and preservation of the connection to Landau and its extension to Zweibrücken during the Cold War for strategic reasons.
DB received funding from the federal government to finance this project, which was finished in October 1967.
The expectations of this project were not fulfilled, however, since the traffic flows within the Palatinate in the east-west direction had long since been concentrated on the Mannheim–Saarbrücken railway.

In the course of the staged dissolution of the railway division of Mainz from 1 August 1971, its counterpart in Karlsruhe took responsibility for the station.
Passenger operations on the line to Landau was abandoned on 1 June 1984 due to low demand.
As the Rhine Bridge between Karlsruhe and Wörth was heavily damaged by a shipwreck on 9 June 1987, express trains of the Saarbrücken–Zweibrücken–Landau–Wörth–Karlsruhe route ran for four weeks via Germersheim.
Freight operations towards Landau ended at the turn of the year 1991/1992.
