Шаблон:Infobox rail line Шаблон:Hirtshals line The Hirtshals railway line (Шаблон:Lang-da) is a Шаблон:Convert long standard gauge single track railway line between Hjørring and Hirtshals, Denmark.[1] The railway links the fishing and ferry port of Hirtshals with the Danish rail network.

The railway line opened in 1925.[2] It is currently owned and operated by the railway company Nordjyske Jernbaner (NJ) which runs frequent local train services from Hirtshals station to Hjørring station with onward connections from Hjørring to the rest of Denmark.[3]

History

In 1915, the Danish Parliament agreed to build a new railway line between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws on the Skagen Line with a possible branch line from Шаблон:Rws to Шаблон:Rws. The main line to Ålbæk was never constructed however, but the branch line to Hirtshals was built instead. Construction started in April 1924, and the railway was opened on 18 December the following year.

From the start, the railway line was operated together with the Hjørring-Løkken-Aabybro Line and the Hjørring-Hørby Line in the joint operating company Hjørring Privatbaner (HP).

In 2001, the operating company Hjørring Privatbaner merged with Skagensbanen to form the railway company Nordjyske Jernbaner (NJ).[4][5] Headquartered in Hjørring, the company is now responsible for running the Hjørring–Hirtshals and Frederikshavn–Skagen lines.[3]

In 2005 the current Siemens Desiro trains, which have a maximum speed of 120 km/h (75 mph), were introduced.

Express service

An international passenger service, Nordpilen, between Hirtshals and Hamburg, connecting with the ferries to and from Norway, ceased many years ago.

Freight

Apart from local passenger traffic, there are transit freight trains linking Norway to the European continent. The freight cars are transferred on the railway ferry from Hirtshals to Kristiansand.
