history

The line between the then Prussian cities of Posen and Thorn was initially completed on a single track by the Upper Silesian Railway Company . The opening of the section from Poznan to Inowrazlaw and on to Bromberg took place on May 26, 1872, on July 1, 1873 the branching line from Inowrazlaw to Thorn was opened. When the company was taken over by the Prussian state in 1886, the line was transferred to the Prussian State Railways , which they expanded to double-track by 1888. After the First World War , the line was in Poland and was operated by the Polish State Railways. The route formed a section of the so-called corridor traffic to and from East Prussia . After the line had been operated by the Deutsche Reichsbahn during the Second World War , it was back in Poland after 1945.

The section from Poznań to Inowrocław was electrified in 1976 and the further section to Toruń in 1983.
