Easy to get wrong
ICE line 45 (Cologne Hbf – Cologne/Bonn Airport – Montabaur – Stuttgart) begins at Cologne Hauptbahnhof itself, calling at the airport a few minutes later — a traveller starting downtown does not need to go out to the airport station first.

Where to go
Because ICE 45 stops at both Cologne Hbf and Cologne/Bonn Airport on the same working, the two are effectively one shared departure board for this specific service — checking either station's board for it finds the same train.
