After the Second World War, the easternmost part of the island of Usedom came to Poland . The Ducherow – Heringsdorf – Wolgaster ferry line was divided twice by the new border. Operations on the Polish section of the route were only maintained for a very short time; then the line in Poland as well as the section from Ducherow over the destroyed Karnin Bridge to the Polish border dismantled. From the direction of Heringsdorf , the operated route ended in Seebad Ahlbeck . In 1997 the line was extended to the Ahlbeck border , directly at the German-Polish border crossing .

The first train to the Świnoujście Centrum station left in February 2008. The start of public transport was delayed until September 21, 2008 due to the lack of appropriate permits from the Polish railway authorities.
