This line diverges at Palas and allows access to either the southern end of Constanţa station or directly onto the Mangalia line, the latter curve not being used by any passenger trains. Although there would appear to be no reason why any train should not use this route, in practice only some summer only through trains between Bucuresţi (or beyond) and Mangalia (and vice versa) have been observed to take it. ''R942'', the summer only Satu Mare to Mangalia train, took this route in 2009.

This north to south spur avoids Apahida station. The number of services has increased greatly in the current timetable and they will no longer be individually identified. Southbound trains are clearly visible in table 401 and southbound trains in table 300

Târguşor Bihor – Cadia (via Săcueni Bihor halt)

[402,413] (48B3) RO10/5
