Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox rail line
The High Rhine Railway (Шаблон:Lang-de) is a Deutsche Bahn railway line from Шаблон:Rws in the city of Basel to Шаблон:Stn on Lake Constance. It was built by the Grand Duchy of Baden State Railways as part of the Baden Mainline, which follows the Rhine upstream from Mannheim Hauptbahnhof to Konstanz. The line derives its name from the High Rhine (Шаблон:Lang), which it follows between Basel and Waldshut and on a short section in Schaffhausen.
The line crosses the Germany–Switzerland border three times and passes through Swiss territory within the canton of Basel-Stadt and whilst crossing the main part of the canton of Schaffhausen. The other sections of the line run through the German state of Baden-Württemberg. Шаблон:Rws station is jointly owned and run by Deutsche Bahn (DB) and Swiss Federal Railways (SBB), while the rest of the line is owned and operated throughout by DB.
History
Шаблон:Further The High Rhine Railway was opened on 4 February 1856 from Basel Bad Bf to Bad Säckingen and extended to Waldshut on 30 October 1856. Construction then stopped for a while, but on 15 June 1863, the whole line to Konstanz (Constance) was completed. Meanwhile, the Turgi–Koblenz–Waldshut railway was opened on 18 August 1859, connecting to the Swiss railway network across the Rhine at Koblenz. On 1 July 1871, the Swiss Northeastern Railway (NOB) opened the Lake Line section between Шаблон:Rws and Konstanz. On 17 July 1875, the Swiss National Railway (SNB) opened the Winterthur–Etzwilen railway, Etzwilen–Konstanz/Kreuzlingen Hafen railway and Etzwilen–Singen railway lines, which connect to the High Rhine railway line in Konstanz and Singen, respectively.
The whole line — including the sections on Swiss territory — was owned under treaty by Baden State Railways and still belongs to Deutsche Bahn. The 1852 treaty allows Switzerland to reclaim ownership of the section on Swiss territory on five year's notice. Although this possibility was discussed after the First World War, it was never implemented. In the Second World War, cross-border traffic was severely limited and military traffic did not pass through Switzerland. In 1944/45, four pairs of passenger services each day ran all the way between Basel Bad Bf and Singen. In the timetable, however, it was expressly stated: "transit through the canton of Schaffhausen only permitted with passport with exemption (visa)". Between 8 June 1945 and 1 August 1953 the German railway infrastructure in Switzerland was managed by a trust authority established by the Swiss Federal Council.
Between 1873 and 1899, train ferries operated from Konstanz over Lake Constance to ports in Germany and Austria.
Route
The railway follows the High Rhine upstream between Basel and Waldshut. It crosses the Germany-Switzerland border for the first time between Basel and Grenzach-Wyhlen. East of Waldshut, the tracks divert from the river and run in northeastward direction towards Klettgau valley. It crosses the German-Swiss border between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws. The highest elevation is reached near Шаблон:Rws. At the eastern end of Klettgau valley, the line runs through Engi, a narrow valley between Beringen and Neuhausen. Between Neuhausen and Schaffhausen, the line approaches the High Rhine and follows it for a short distance before turning northwards just south of Шаблон:Rws station, again diverting from the river. The line then runs in northeastward direction and crosses the Swiss-German border between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Stn. Passing through the Hegau region, the line turns southeastwards east of Singen. Shortly before reaching Konstanz, its eastern terminus, the line crosses the Seerhein over the Old Rhine Bridge.
The scenic route along the river includes towns with historic town centers, such as Rheinfelden, Laufenburg, Waldshut, Schaffhausen and Konstanz. The Rhine Falls (Шаблон:Lang) can also be seen on route.
Infrastructure
Since 1987, most of the route has been double-tracked; only the section between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws and a very short section in Konstanz, between the stops Petershausen and Kostanz station, is single tracked. The section between Laufenburg and Murg was duplicated a few years ago.Шаблон:When
The line is Шаблон:Convert long and standard gauge. As of 2024, the line between Шаблон:Rws and Erzingen is not electrified, whilst the rest of the line (between Erzingen and Constance) is electrified at Шаблон:15 kV AC supplied by overhead line. The state of Baden-Württemberg and the canton of Schaffhausen have been asked to fund electrification of the part of the route between Basel Badischer Bahnhof and Schaffhausen. In 2013, the section between Erzingen and Schaffhausen was electrified. There are plans to electrify the entire line in the near future.[1]
Operations
Up to the 1990s, express services ran from Basel Bad Bf, or Freiburg, to Шаблон:Rws, with some continuing to Шаблон:Rws. Шаблон:As of the route is served by Interregio-Express (IRE) trains, Шаблон:Rcb, on the Basel Bad Bf–Singen and Basel Bad Bf–Шаблон:Rws (previously until Ulm Hauptbahnhof) routes. A Regionalbahn (RB), Шаблон:Rcb,[2] runs hourly between Basel Bad Bf and Шаблон:Rws, with most trains continuing to Шаблон:Rws. During peak hour, services between Basel and Waldshut run every half-hour. DMUs are used on this section. At Basel Bad Bf, connections exist to the Шаблон:Rcb to Шаблон:Stn, Шаблон:Rcb to Karlsruhe Hauptbahnhof and Шаблон:Rcb to Шаблон:Stn. Most of these regional services are part of the tri-national Basel S-Bahn.
The section between Waldshut and Lauchringen is used by the Шаблон:Rcb, which continues northwards to Weizen/Stühlingen on the Wutach Valley Railway line. The Шаблон:Ric of Aargau S-Bahn and Шаблон:S-Bahn-Zürich of Zürich S-Bahn use a short section of the line east of Waldshut before crossing the Rhine on the Turgi–Koblenz–Waldshut railway line.
Since 2013, EMUs of THURBO operate as Шаблон:Ric of Schaffhausen S-Bahn between Erzingen and Schaffhausen. Between Schaffhausen and Шаблон:Stn, more than one train an hour operate during the day. This section is operated by the Шаблон:Ric of Schaffhausen S-Bahn and Шаблон:Ric of Zürich S-Bahn (until 2015 by the S22 service) in addition to InterCity (IC) trains, Шаблон:Rcb, running between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws. EMUs are used on this section since its electrification in 1989. In Schaffhausen. the line connects with the Rheinfall Railway line (linking it with the Eglisau–Neuhausen railway line) and the Lake Line.
Between Singen and Konstanz, Regional-Express (RE) service Шаблон:Rcb and SBB GmbH's Seehas (Шаблон:Rcb) operate. In Singen, they continue northwards on the Black Forest Railway. In Singen, the line also connects with the Etzwilen–Singen railway line, which is a heritage railway since 2007. Between 1913 and 1966, it also connected with the now dismantled Randen Railway (Шаблон:Lang) to Beuren-Büßlingen. In Radolfzell, the line connects with the Radolfzell–Mengen railway line, which links it with the Stahringen–Friedrichshafen railway line.
Шаблон:Stn station is close to the Germany–Switzerland border. Towards South, the line merges with the Lake Line (with branches in both directions). Fom Konstanz station, there are connections to the Шаблон:Ric and Шаблон:Ric of St. Gallen S-Bahn, a RegioExpress (RE), Шаблон:Ric, as well as InterRegio (IR) trains of Swiss Federal Railways.
The section between Waldshut and Basel is mainly used by commuters in the industrial conurbation of Basel. The section of the line in the canton of Schaffhausen, Switzerland, and adjacent German towns has its own services operated by the Swiss Federal Railways' subsidiaries SBB GmbH and THURBO (in addition to the Шаблон:Ric). The section between Schaffhausen and Singen, which connects the Gäubahn and the Swiss rail network and carries significant long-distance passenger and freight traffic. On the section between Singen and Konstanz, local services operate as part of Bodensee S-Bahn, while IRE services connect with Karlsruhe.
