This part of the original rail route from Berlin to Dresden links Falkenberg with the Leipzig – Dresden main line near Riesa. The local passenger service has been withdrawn, but when there is engineering work on the main line to/from Berlin via Elsterwerda, all ''EC'', ''EN'' and ''IC'' trains between Berlin and Dresden are diverted by this route. This was the case during most of 2016 and 2017 and on certain dates in spring 2018. Further occasional diversions may occur in future.

(59C1-59C3) DE18/333F [The northern part of this route is in Land Brandenburg]

This part of the original rail route from Berlin to Dresden links Falkenberg with the Leipzig – Dresden main line near Riesa.

This occurred frequently in the last few years while the main line was upgraded. Although the upgrade has now been completed, further occasional diversions may occur in future.
