Leverkusen-Manfort station is a through station in the district of Manfort of the city of Leverkusen in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. It was named after the nearby town of Schlebusch and opened on 25 August 1867 on the Gruiten–Köln-Deutz railway, which was completed between the former Bergisch-Märkische Railway Company (BME) station in Mülheim and Opladen by the BME on 1 May 1868. It received its current name in December 2021.[5] It has three platform tracks and it is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 5 station.[1]

The station is served by the Rhein-Wupper-Bahn (RB 48) between Wuppertal-Oberbarmen and Cologne twice an hour during the day, with one train an hour to/from Bonn-Mehlem.[6]

It is also served by eight bus routes operated by Kraftverkehr Wupper-Sieg:[7] 209 (at 20 minute intervals), 210 (20), 211 (20), 212 (20), 217 (once a day), 222 (20), 226 (4 times a day) and 227 (20).[6]

In December 2021, the station was renamed from Leverkusen-Schlebusch to Leverkusen-Manfort.[8]
