The Jüterbog – Nauen railway is a railway line that runs around Berlin to the west. It runs from Jüterbog via Treuenbrietzen, Beelitz, Potsdam, Wustermark to Nauen. The line is a section of the bypass line , which was designed primarily for freight traffic, and which was intended to relieve the busy railway lines in Berlin. The Wustermark – Nauen section has now been closed, Golm – Priort is now part of the Berlin outer ring and has been expanded as a double-track main line . The sections Nauen – Priort and Golm – Beelitzer Kreuz are or were single-track main line, the rest single-track branch line .
history

At the turn of the 20th century, the route network in Berlin increasingly proved to be a bottleneck for the growing freight traffic. A bypass of the capital was also considered for strategic military reasons. The line from Jüterbog to Treuenbrietzen, opened on December 1, 1894, was extended via Potsdam to Nauen on the Hamburger Bahn (inauguration Treuenbrietzen – Beelitz city October 1, 1904, Beelitz city – wildlife park October 1, 1908 and wildlife park – Nauen September 1, 1902) . Level-free crossings with existing main lines were created north of Beelitz with the Wetzlarer Bahn , at Wustermark station with the Berlin-Lehrter Railway and at Wildpark station (today Potsdam Park Sanssouci station ) with the Berlin – Magdeburg line . With the construction of the Wustermark marshalling yard on the Lehrter Bahn east of the intersection with the bypass railway, a double-track connecting line was created from the direction of the wildlife park, which turned north of Priort to the east. The section from Wustermark to Nauen was also double-tracked for the construction of the marshalling yard.
During the First World War, in 1915, the extension from Nauen via Kremmen to Oranienburg was inaugurated. In the course of the opening of the Seddin marshalling yard in the first half of the 1920s, connecting curves from Ferch-Lienewitz and Beelitz Stadt were created. In the following years, the network of Berlin bypass routes with the connection from Seddin to Großbeeren and later with the outer freight ring was expanded.
In passenger transport, the route primarily served local interests.
After the Second World War and the division of Germany, the bypassing of West Berlin had become particularly important for the GDR. In the vicinity of the Altes Lager train station, a connecting curve to the Anhalter Bahn to the south was built. It was provisionally put into operation on March 20th, officially on April 1st, 1950. The volume of traffic on the route increased in the following years, and in the mid-1950s it was also used by express trains from Saxony to the Baltic Sea. With the Berlin outer ring , a powerful bypass was created in the second half of the 1950s, in which the bypass between Golm and Priort was included. At the intersection of the bypass and the outer ring in the woods southwest of Potsdam, the tower station Potsdam Süd was inaugurated in 1958 , which a few years later became Potsdam Central Station (today Potsdam Pirschheide).
After the wall was built and the Hamburg Railway was closed after a border breakthrough in December 1961, the Berlin – Hamburg trains also used the section between Wustermark and Nauen, the so-called Bredower curve. For freight traffic, the line remained important as a supplementary line, especially to the nearby Seddin marshalling yard. Occasionally, transit trains to Berlin were also diverted via this route.
Development after 1995
On April 30, 1996, the Wustermark – Bredow – Nauen connection was shut down after a direct connection to Berlin was available with the reopened Hamburg railway.
On the Wustermark – Golm – Potsdam section, the regional train connection RB 21 runs every one to two hours , and on the outer ring section, the RB 20 and a brisk freight traffic. The passenger traffic between Wildpark (today Potsdam Park Sanssouci ) and Potsdam Pirschheide was stopped in 1994, instead the trains now run from Potsdam Central Station .
In 1998 the bridge of the bypass railway over the Wetzlar Railway near Beelitz was closed. Instead of the continuous Potsdam – Jüterbog trains, the RB 22 has since operated between Potsdam and Ferch-Lienewitz and on via Michendorf to Berlin-Schönefeld .
Since then, Beelitz Stadt, Treuenbrietzen and Jüterbog have been served by the RB 33 from Berlin-Wannsee via Michendorf. After 2000, there were considerations to discontinue passenger traffic on the section Beelitz Stadt – Jüterbog, which is in relatively low demand, but this route was expanded to 100 km / h in 2006/07. The attractiveness of the offer has increased thanks to the shorter travel times and cheaper connections in Berlin-Wannsee, and since the end of 2007 also in Jüterbog. The transport service on the RB 33 was awarded for the timetable change in December 2007 for an initial two years in an expression of interest procedure ; Veolia Verkehr and its subsidiary Ostseeland-Verkehr (OLA) were awarded the contract . The line was operated under the brand name Märkische Regiobahn (line MR 33) with Desiro railcars . From Monday to Friday there was an approximate hourly service between Beelitz Stadt and Berlin-Wannsee.
With the timetable change in December 2011, the Ostdeutsche Eisenbahn (ODEG) took over the Berlin-Wannsee - Jüterbog connection. Articulated multiple units of the 646 series are used on the line designated as OE 33 . On the entire line, trains run every hour from Monday to Friday with an intersection in Treuenbrietzen and every two hours on weekends. Also since December 2011, due to the approaching commissioning of Berlin Brandenburg Airport, the RB 22 line has been running directly over the Berlin outer ring . The RB 23 (Potsdam - Michendorf) now runs on the bypass in the Caputh area.
With the timetable change on December 9, 2012, the line names were standardized, so the line name OE 33 was also changed to RB 33.
It is planned to run the RB 33 from Beelitz Stadt via Caputh to Potsdam again from the mid-2020s, and a new RB 37 line will connect Beelitz Stadt with Berlin-Wannsee. For the reconstruction of the bridge over the Wetzlarer Bahn, the plan approval documents were laid out in autumn 2018 and the plan approval decision was issued in October 2019.
In addition to the buildings in Potsdam Park Sanssouci and Jüterbog, which had already been built for other routes, the station buildings in Tiefenbrunnen, Treuenbrietzen, Buchholz (Zauche), Beelitz Stadt and Caputh-Geltow as well as a railway keeper's house in Priort are under monument protection.
Others
After the cessation of traffic, the Bredow train station served as the backdrop for the crime film “ Dettmanns wide world ” from the series Polizeiruf 110 . Otto Sander and Ben Becker work as route workers with the dismantling of "their" route that they had been working on for years. The two previous films " Totes Gleis " and " Das Wunder von Wustermark " were shot in Bredow, but the station scenes in the film "Totes Gleis" were shot at Großbeeren station on the Anhalter Bahn .
