The Piła – Ustka ( Schneidemühl – Stolpmünde ) railway is a main line in the northern part of western Poland, which connects the Pomeranian hinterland with the Baltic Sea .

course

The Piła – Ustka railway runs in a south-north direction and begins in the north-east of the Greater Poland Voivodeship . Then over a length of 40 kilometers, it touches an eastern section of the province West Pomerania before the east of the border with the province West Pomerania, the Pomeranian Province pervades.

In its total course of 192 kilometers it connects the cities of Piła ( Schneidemühl ), Jastrowie ( Jastrow ), Szczecinek ( Neustettin ), Biały Bór ( Baldenburg ), Miastko ( Rummelsburg ), Słupsk ( Stolp ) and Ustka ( Stolpmünde ) with each other and takes theirs Path through the middle of the Pomeranian Lake District .

State of development

The line is single-track throughout and electrified between Piła and Szczecinek and between Słupsk and Ustka. The line has been severely dismantled in parts, so there are only two crossing stations on the 131-kilometer Szczecinek – Ustka section, with Ustka itself only being a stopping point, namely in Miastko and Słupsk.

The maximum speed for passenger trains hauled by locomotives is largely a hundred kilometers per hour between Piła and Szczecinek, and sometimes a hundred and twenty for multiple units. As far as Słupsk, locomotive hauled passenger trains are allowed to travel largely ninety kilometers per hour, railcars a hundred. On the remaining stretch to Ustka, the maximum speed for passenger trains is generally eighty kilometers per hour. The maximum speed for freight trains is mostly limited to sixty to seventy kilometers per hour.

history

Today's route 405 of the Polish State Railways (PKP) from Piła to Ustka combines a section of the Posen – Schneidemühl –Neustettin line opened by the Prussian Eastern Railway on May 15, 1879, with the railway line that the Prussian Eastern Railway opened on October 1, 1878 Neustettin – Stolp – Stolpmünde.

Section Piła – Szczecinek (Schneidemühl – Neustettin)

Piła Główna railway station (formerly Schneidemühl )

In 1851, the Prussian Eastern Railway opened parallel to an ancient trade route from the Altmark to the Vistula the railway Cross (Krzyż Wielkopolski) -Bromberg (Bydgoszcz) . Near the mouth of the Gwda (Gwda) in the networks she took then 1879 also along an old trade route from the south by the Uscher tightness to the Baltic Sea , the railway poses Neustettin- in operation. At the intersection of the two railway lines was Schneidemühl, which quickly developed into a railway junction: in addition, the Schneidemühl – Flatow (Złotów) railway was built in 1871 , and the line from Deutsch Krone (Wałcz) to Schneidemühl was connected in 1881 .

The 1918 border location with Poland affected the railway junction very much, which only changed in 1945 when it was transferred to Polish territory.

The distance from Piła to Szczecinek is 70 kilometers.

The station building in Szczecinek ( Neustettin )

After 1945 the railway station Piła Północ ( North ) was rebuilt, which resulted in the renaming of the previous station within the city in Piła Główna ( Central Station ). The village of Zawada ( Springberg ) also got its own stop.

In its course, the Piła-Szczecinek line encountered two connecting railroads in the city of Jastrowie ( Jastrow ) before 1945 : the Tempelburg – Jastrowie line (Czaplinek – Jastrowie) built in 1908 and the Jastrow – Wengerz line (Jastrowie – Węgierce), which was only opened in 1914 . Both lines were dismantled in 1945.

In Szczecinek the railway meets the railway line built in 1878, which it follows today as PKP line 405 via Słupsk to Ustka. The former Neustettin also developed into a railway junction when the Ruhnow – Schlochau (Runowo Pomorskie Człuchów ) railway opened in the same year . In 1879 the Neustettin – Belgard (Szczecinek– Białogard ) railway followed , which was later extended to Kolberg ( Kołobrzeg ).

The section to Szczecinek has been electrified since December 30, 1989 and has been driven at a maximum speed of 100 km / h since July 23, 2001, in the Lotyń ( Lottin ) –Szczecinek section since 2009 even up to 120 km / h.

Long-distance train stations are Piła Główna, Jastrowie and Szczecinek.

Section Szczecinek – Ustka (Neustettin – Stolpmünde)

The older and longer section of the route was built in 1878 parallel to the construction of the Ruhnow – Schlochau and Neustettin – Belgard railway lines . Similar to Schneidemühl, Neustettin became an important railway junction in the east-west and north-south directions. The distance from Szczecinek to Ustka is 122 kilometers. After 1945 three additional railway stops were created: Kępka ( Kampmühle ), Kobylnica Słupska ( Kublitz ) and Gałęzinowo ( overflow ).

The station in Miastko ( Rummelsburg )

On this section of the route, the Piła-Ustka railway meets other railway lines. First in Miastko ( Rummelsburg ), where a railway line to Schlochau has been branching off since 1902 and an additional railway line to Bütow ( Bytów ) since 1909 . Both lines were dismantled in 1945 as reparations for the Soviet Union . Another crossing point is Korzybie ( Zollbrück ). The railway line to Rügenwalde ( Darłowo ) of the Prussian Eastern Railway was built here at the same time as the Neustettin – Stolpmünde railway line , and in 1884 the railway line to Bütow (Bytów). In 1921 the commissioning of the one coming from Bublitz ( Bobolice ) via Gramenz (Grzmiąca) to Zollbrück followed . The latter was shut down after 1945.

In Słupsk, the Piła – Ustka line meets the Köslin – Stolp ( Koszalin - Słupsk ), which was built in 1869 by the Pomeranian Railway and which was extended to Danzig in 1870 . In Stolp, two small railway lines of the Stolper Bahnen met today's state railway lines.

In the Baltic Sea resort of Ustka - this was the terminus of a Stolper Bahnen light rail line until 1945 - the Piła – Ustka railway ends, the second section of which has been electrified since June 30, 1990 and on which the maximum speed of 100 km / 100 km since 2009 between Szczecinek and Słupsk h can be driven, and since 2001 between Słupsk and Ustka at least 80 km / h. Trains stop running between Słupsk and Ustka in winter.
