history

Dettmannsdorf-Kölzow station building (2008)

One of the many projects that were discussed after the second nationalization of the Friedrich-Franz-Eisenbahn in 1890 was a line that should open up the eastern area around Rostock. On November 16, 1895, the line from Rostock via Sanitz to Sülze and on over the Prussian border to Tribsees was opened, and the branch line from Sanitz to Ticino went into operation on the same day . In Ticino there was a transition to the Ticino narrow-gauge railway from 1895 to 1963 . Tribsees became a small railway junction, a few months earlier (May 1895) the Franzburger Südbahn line to Velgast had already gone into operation. This was followed by the Greifswald-Grimmen railway company with a route to Grimmen and Greifswald and in 1901 the Stralsund-Tribsees railway company in the direction of Stralsund. There was a common train station for all four railway companies.

Other projects, such as a connection from Ticino to Gnoien or from Dettmannsdorf -Kölzow to the nearby Marlow , were not implemented. Marlow remained the only city in Mecklenburg without a railway connection (apart from Rerik, which was not elevated to a city until 1938 ).

The Rostock – Tribsees route was only of local importance, although it was the shortest route from Rostock to Grimmen and Greifswald. In 1905 four pairs of trains ran daily from Rostock to Tribsees, which had a direct connection to Ticino in Sanitz. In Tribsees there was mostly a connection towards Grimmen . This offer remained unchanged in the 1930s.

After 1945, the section from Sanitz to Tribsees (as well as the lines from there to Stralsund and Greifswald) was dismantled as a reparation payment to the Soviet Union. Only the first two kilometers to Reppelin remained in operation as a siding to a military facility until the 1990s. Passenger trains remained between Rostock, Sanitz and Ticino.

The offer was limited to five to six train pairs per day until the 1990s and was then increased somewhat. From 1997 to 1999 the line was extensively renovated and expanded to a line speed of 80 km / h as part of a model project. The stops in Teschendorf and Horst were closed, a new stop was built in Ticino West next to an industrial park. The station in Roggentin was relocated to the northeast near a residential area. All platforms were rebuilt with a length of 100 meters and a height of 55 centimeters, so that barrier-free boarding is possible. Since then, trains have been running every hour, and passenger demand exceeded all expectations at first.

Todays situation

Line between Rostock and the Warnow Bridge near Kessin with class 642 railcars

Regional trains on the RB 11 line (RE 8 until December 2015) run between Rostock and Ticino every hour, connected to and from Wismar. Class 642 ( Desiro ) railcars are used . There is no longer any freight traffic and, with the exception of Sanitz, there are no longer any crossroads on the route. The electronic interlocking technology is operated from Neuruppin .

There are a number of traces of the Sanitz – Tribsee section, which was dismantled in 1945. Most of the station buildings have been preserved. The Tribsees station was still in operation for the trains to Velgast on the Franzburger Südbahn until 1995 . In the forest area around Dammerstorf train station there is a hiking trail on the embankment.

The station buildings and some of the outbuildings at the Broderstorf, Teschendorf, Groß Lüsewitz, Sanitz, Ticino, Bad Sülze and Tribsees stations are listed buildings.
