Dortmund-Mengede station is located in the Dortmund suburb of Mengede in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The station was opened in 1848 as part of the trunk line of the former Cologne-Minden Railway Company.

Mengede station is used by a range of passenger services and includes an area to the north-west of the passenger station that is used for shunting and freight. Four tracks are available for passenger operations. Two tracks are served by the Regional-Express service RE 3, Rhein-Emscher-Express, the other two tracks are served by S-Bahn line S 2. The two platforms are connected by an underground pedestrian tunnel. The walkway tunnel is not yet equipped with lifts, so people in wheelchairs can only use the platforms with assistance.

At the station there are 136 park and ride spaces for cars and 16 bicycle lockers, which were built as part of the “Bike and Ride” concept. An expansion of the capacity of these facilities is planned.

The station's platform canopy is listed as a monument by the city of Dortmund.

The freight and marshalling yard is used mainly handle coal despatched to the Gustav Knepper Power Station. Formerly coal was transported from the Adolf von Hansemann colliery, which closed in 1967.
