History

The Wächtersbach–Birstein section of the Vogelsberg Southern Railway was opened on 30 June 1898 by the Wächtersbach-Birstein Light Railway Company (Wächtersbach-Birsteiner Kleinbahn-Gesellschaft). The Birstein-Hartmannshain section was opened on 23 December 1934. The Vogelsberg Southern Railway was closed on 27 May 1967. Today the Vogelsberg Southern Railway cycle track (Vogelsberger Südbahnradweg) is built on it.

The Wächtersbach–Bad Orb railway was originally a standard gauge line, which began in Wächtersbach and ran to Bad Orb. It was opened on 23 May 1901[3] and closed on 4 March 1995. On 26 May 2001, the first section in Bad Orb was reopened as a 600-mm gauge railway and the whole route to Wächtersbach has been operated since 29 October 2006. The seasonal service operates on Sundays and public holidays from Easter to the end of October. Trains stop at the former station called Wächtersbach Kleinbahnhof next to Wächtersbach station and the operator uses the (unofficial) platform number of 21.
