The [http://www.bayerisches-eisenbahnmuseum.de Bayerisches Eisenbahnmuseum] usually runs ''Nikolausfahrten rund um München'' on the first two weekends in December. These depart from München Ost and operate via the Nordring; in past years they have usually been routed via München-Moosach. Dates of operation in 2017 were 2, 3, 9 and 10 December, with departures from München Ost about 10:00, 11:30, 13:30 and 15:00. These trains also use the route between München Süd and München-Neulustheim via Laim Rbf and the connection between the ''S-Bahn'' and Mühldorf lines at Riedenburgerstrasse. | |||

The Rohrdorf branch appears to be operated by [http://www.logistik-wiesboeck.de/index.php/eisenbahnverkehr/personenverkehr Logistik Wiesböck].

[615, 800, 801] (''78C3'') DE18/681 | |||
This route comprises a west to north curve linking the Aschaffenburg and Flieden lines, avoiding the need to reverse at Gemünden (Main), and a connection from the old main line to the ''Schnellfahrstrecke'' towards Fulda at Burgsinn. It is used occasionally for diversions when the line between Hanau and Flieden is blocked. ''ICE'' trains were diverted via this route between 29 April and 1 May 2017, the services concerned having an extended journey time between Fulda and Hanau. | |||
===Burgsinn - Burgsinn Bbf - Würzburg=== | |||
[800.1] (''78C3'') DE18/682 | |||
This route comprises a connection between Burgsinn, on the old main line, and the ''Schnellfahrstrecke'' towards Würzburg. It was used by ''IC'' and ''ICE'' trains between Hanau and Würzburg on several occasions in 2017. Trains concerned had an extended journey time and did not stop at Aschaffenburg. | |||
===Nürnberg-Eibach - Fürth (Bay) Hbf (via Nürnberg Großmarkt)=== | |||
[910] (''162B4-162B3'') DE18/683 | |||
This route via the western side of the Nürnberg ring line may be used by ''IC/ICE'' trains between Augsburg and Würzburg during work on the line via Ansbach and this happened on several weekends in autumn 2017. Bus replacement of local trains may indicate this. This route may also be used by trains between the Treuchtlingen and Bamberg lines, in event of work in the Nürnberg area, but that is much less usual. | |||
===Feucht (Nürnberg-Reichswald) - Fürth (Bay) Hbf (via Nürnberg Rangierbahnhof)=== | |||
[880] (''162D4-162B3'') DE18/684 | |||
This route via the full length of the Nürnberg ring line can be used by trains between Fürth and Regensburg in order to avoid Nürnberg Hbf. ''ICE'' and ''IC'' trains ran this way in August 2017, but that was most unusual. Any such diversion is indicated by the usual stop at Nürnberg Hbf being omitted. | |||
===Olching – München-Johanneskirchen (via München-Freimann)=== | |||
(''166B2-165C2'') DE18/685 | |||
This route via the München Nordring can be used by trains between Augsburg and Salzburg. In event of such a diversion trains usually reverse at München Ost and omit the usual booked stop at München Hbf. This is fairly unusual, but some ''EC'' and ''IC'' trains were diverted this way between 29 July and 3 August 2017. It is also possible for trains from the Ingolstadt line to run via the Nordring, by means of a connection from München-Karlsfeld, but there has been no recent instance of this. | |||

Introduction
This list is based on the timetable dated from 10 December 2017 to 8 December 2018, unless otherwise stated. Standard abbreviations are explained in General Information. Map references relate to the 2014 issue of the Schweers+Wall Eisenbahnatlas Deutschland.
Obscure services: Lines with regular use
Gemünden (Main) (Wernfeld) – Waigolshausen
[800, 810] (78C4-79B4) DE18/651
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.

Trebgast (Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg Süd) – Marktschorgast (Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg Ost) (Schlömener Kurve)
[860] (81B3) DE18/652
This south to north curve, opened in 2001, connects the Bayreuth and Hof lines, avoiding Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg. It is used by RE trains between Nürnberg and Hof via Bayreuth. These mostly run every two hours.
Hersbruck (rechts Pegnitz) – Pommelsbrunn
[870] (90A3) DE18/653
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 RE services between Nürnberg, Schwandorf and Neustadt (Waldnaab).
Nürnberg Hbf (Nürnberg-Dutzendteich) - Fürth (Bay) Hbf (via Nürnberg Rangierbahnhof)
(65B3, 162C3-162B3) DE18/654
This is a freight ring round the south side of Nürnberg. It is sometimes used during the spring and sumer by special trips behind the replica steam locomotive Adler. There is very limited capacity, because the trains comprise a small number of replicas of carriages used on the original 1835 railway between Nürnberg and Fürth. Advance reservation is essential, because trips are sold out well in advance. For more information, including details of further trips when available, see the DB Museum website. There were regular trips in 2016, but do not appear to have been any in 2017.
Nürnberg Hbf (Nürnberg-Dutzendteich) - Nürnberg-Eibach (via Nürnberg Rangierbahnhof)
[910] (162B4-162C3) DE18/655
This route via the eastern side of the Nürnberg ring line is used by the following trains in order to avoid reversal at Nürnberg Hbf.
| NJ421 | Düsseldorf Hbf - 01:37 Würzburg Hbf - Innsbruck Hbf | ||
| NJ420 | Innsbruck Hbf - 23:30 Augsburg Hbf - Düsseldorf Hbf |
Ingolstadt Hbf – Weichering and Schrobenhausen (Seehof Bbf)
[983,993] (97D4) DE18/656
The lines to Ingolstadt from Augsburg and from Donauwörth join at Seehof Bbf and then split into two independent single tracks forming a flying junction with the main line from München. Crossovers south of Ingolstadt Hbf mean that all platforms are accessible from both routes, but the branch trains do not normally cross the main line on the flat. Trains to platforms 5, 6 and 7, on the east side of Ingolstadt Hbf use the flyover, but those to platforms 1, 2 and 2a on the west side do not. The hourly trains to and from Augsburg mostly use platforms 1, 2 and 2a, and the direct spur from Seehof Bbf. Trains to and from Donauwörth mostly run via the flyover and use platforms 5, 6 and 7.
Augsburg-Oberhausen – Neusäß (Augsburg-Hirblinger Straße)
[980] (163C3) DE18/657
There are two routes into Augsburg from Ulm, that from the east side of (and flying over) the Donauwörth line being used by most trains. The other, from the west side of the Donauwörth line, is used by trains between the Ulm line and platforms 7, 8 or 9 at Augsburg Hbf.
Leienfelsstrasse (Abzw Pasing West) – Abzw Pasing Nord – München Hbf (Abzw München Kanal) (via the Abstellbahn line)
[970] (164B3-164D3) DE18/658
The normal route for trains between Buchloe and München Hbf is by a flyover over the Starnberg line S-Bahn tracks (S8) west of Pasing, through platforms 1 to 3 there and thence to the north side platforms at Hauptbahnhof via the Fernbahn line from Starnberg (line 5504).

[615, 800, 801] (78C3) DE18/681

It is used occasionally for diversions when the line between Hanau and Flieden is blocked. ICE trains were diverted via this route between 29 April and 1 May 2017, the services concerned having an extended journey time between Fulda and Hanau.
Burgsinn - Burgsinn Bbf - Würzburg
[800.1] (78C3) DE18/682
This route comprises a connection between Burgsinn, on the old main line, and the Schnellfahrstrecke towards Würzburg. It was used by IC and ICE trains between Hanau and Würzburg on several occasions in 2017. Trains concerned had an extended journey time and did not stop at Aschaffenburg.
Nürnberg-Eibach - Fürth (Bay) Hbf (via Nürnberg Großmarkt)
[910] (162B4-162B3) DE18/683
This route via the western side of the Nürnberg ring line may be used by IC/ICE trains between Augsburg and Würzburg during work on the line via Ansbach and this happened on several weekends in autumn 2017.

This route via the full length of the Nürnberg ring line can be used by trains between Fürth and Regensburg in order to avoid Nürnberg Hbf. ICE and IC trains ran this way in August 2017, but that was most unusual. Any such diversion is indicated by the usual stop at Nürnberg Hbf being omitted.
Olching – München-Johanneskirchen (via München-Freimann)
(166B2-165C2) DE18/685

This is fairly unusual, but some EC and IC trains were diverted this way between 29 July and 3 August 2017. It is also possible for trains from the Ingolstadt line to run via the Nordring, by means of a connection from München-Karlsfeld, but there has been no recent instance of this.
