Introduction

This list is based on the timetable dated from 13 December 2009 to 11 December 2010, unless otherwise stated. Standard abbreviations are explained in General Information.

In the heading to each entry the map reference for the line in the Schweers+Wall Eisenbahn Atlas (2007/2008 edition) is shown, in italic, in addition to the reference to M.G. Ball's European Railway Atlas.

Obscure services

Burgsinn Bbf Schnellfahrstrecke connection

[351, 800.1, F11] (51B2, 78C3) DE09/651

There are north- and south-facing connections from the Schnellfahrstrecke to the old main line at Burgsinn Bbf. The southern connection is used by day trains running non-stop between Fulda and Gemünden (Main), but calling at the latter.

SO IC1887 Hamburg-Altona – 10:28 Fulda – Passau Hbf
SuO IC2350 Stralsund – 23:07 Fulda – Würzburg Hbf
SO IC1886 Passau Hbf – 14:47 Gemünden (Main) – Hamburg-Altona

Gemünden (Main) (Wernfeld) – Waigolshausen

[800, 810] (51B1-51B2, 78A4-79B4) DE09/652

This line, which is about 35 km long, provides a more direct route between Gemünden (Main) and Schweinfurt than the main line via Würzburg or the branch lines via Bad Kissingen. It is likely to be used by excursions, particularly steam trains, between the Frankfurt area and Meiningen or Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg, because it is a suitable place for photographic stops and run-pasts.

E SSuO RE34671 Aschaffenburg Hbf – 09:06 Gemünden (Main ) – Bamberg
E SSuO RE34672 Bamberg – 18:20 Schweinfurt Hbf – Aschaffenburg Hbf

Fürth (Bay) Hbf – Nürnberg-Eibach (Abzw Muster)

[N25] (65B3, 162B3-162B4) DE09/653

This is part of the Nürnberg ring line, which is used by passenger trains between Fürth and Treuchtlingen if not calling (and reversing) at Nürnberg Hbf. Trains are diverted via Fulda and Erfurt and do not use this route from 1 August until 14 September 2009. This is because the line between Forchheim and Bamberg is closed for engineering work.

D CNL1201 Berlin-Lichtenberg – 00:53 Halle (Saale) Hbf – München Ost

Nürnberg-Dutzendteich – Nürnberg-Eibach (Abzw Muster) (via Nürnberg Rbf)

[900] (65B3, 162B3-162B4) DE09/654

This is the eastern part of the Nürnberg ring line, which is used by the following trains to avoid reversal at Nürnberg Hbf:

D MO IC1518 München Hbf – 01:32 Treuchtlingen – Leipzig Hbf
D MO IC1576 München Hbf – 02:46 Treuchtlingen – Berlin-Gesundbrunnen

Hersbruck (rechts Pegnitz) – Pommelsbrunn

[890.1] (60A3, 90A3) DE09/655

This spur links the lines leading east from Nürnberg on each bank of the Pegnitz. It is used by trains between Nürnberg Hbf and Neukirchen (b Sulzbach-Rosenberg) that call at Hersbruck (rechts Pegnitz) or are non-stop. Principal use is by the hourly RE service between Nürnberg, Schwandorf and Neustadt (Waldnaab).

Trebgast (Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg Süd) – Marktschorgast (Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg Ost) (Schlömener Kurve)

[860] (53A2 not shown, 81B3) DE09/656

This south to north curve, opened in 2001, connects the Bayreuth and Hof lines, avoiding Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg. It is used by IRE trains between Nürnberg and Chemnitz or Dresden via Bayreuth. These mostly run every two hours (four hours at weekends).

Dombühl - Feuchtwangen [- Dinkelsbühl - Nördlingen]

(59A2, 96B1-2) DE09/657

This is the northern end of the line used in summer by Bayerisches Eisenbahn Museum (BEM) tourist steam trains between Nördlingen and Feuchtwangen. In conjunction with the Dinkelsbühler Weihnachtsmarkt a service of shuttle trains between Dombühl and Dinkelsbühl operated on the Saturdays and Sundays of four weekends immediately prior to Christmas 2008. It is not known whether this will become an annual feature so readers should consult the BEM website next autumn.
