history
As the first section of the branch line, the Prussian State Railways opened the Schubin - Bromberg section on October 1, 1895, along with the continuation Znin - Schubin . Next, on October 1, 1905, the Poznan - Schokken section was opened. The intermediate piece followed on October 1, 1908.
In 1914, the timetable saw four continuous pairs of trains, one Wongrowitz-Bromberg, one Exin -Bromberg, a Posen-Schokken train only running on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights, a Schokken-Posen train only running on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and one only in the nights on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday before the train.
Due to the Versailles Treaty , the line came to Poland after the First World War .
In 2003/4 the passenger service Gollantsch –Bromberg was discontinued. In 2009 the Gollantsch – Schubin section was closed.
In 2011, the Posen – Wongrowitz section was modernized with funds from the European Union .
Twenty pairs of trains run between Posen and Wongrowitz, four of them to and from Gollantsch.
The resumption of passenger traffic in the remaining section is planned.
