This station is just round the corner. If you come across the main road, 
there's first this station on the right hand side, and after the 
station, there's a street (Schwarzwaldstraße). If your navi tells you 
"Turn left", it's not that difficult to hit the station instead. 

Pay attention to the metal rails between the stiles: This guy must have 
been much faster than the 50km/h allowed...

Cheers,

ce
