===Ludwigstraße – Saarbrücken Messe===
(56A3, ''81C'') DE11/451


A halt on the freight line to Fürstenhausen adjoins the site of Saarbrücken Messe.  tIn previous years Saarbahn trams have run to and from this, in connection with certain trade fairs, using a connection from the street-running line at Ludwigstraße to DB in the vicinity of Abzw Saardamm. However, the trams have run only once since 2006 and it seems likely that services will in future be provided by buses.
