The Smętowo – Szlachta railway is a former railway line in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship .
course
Passing over from the Marienwerder – Schmentau railway line , the line began at Smętowo station (Schmentau; km 75.596) on the Chorzów – Tczew railway line and ran westward via Skórcz (Skurz / Groß Wollental), the start of the Skórcz – Skarszewy railway line , to Szlachta station (km 122,250), which in German times was named not after Schlachta (Polish Szlachta ), but after Königsbruch (Polish Lipowa ). It is located on the Laskowice Pomorskie – Bąk railway , from which there was a connection, formerly the Gleisdreieck , to the Nowa Wieś Wielka – Gdynia railway .
The kilometering of the route is due to the fact that it once ran continuously from Miswalde . Although the route has not started there since 1945 and has also been permanently interrupted between Marienwerder and Münsterwalde since 1947, the zero point of the kilometering is still in Miswalde ( Myślice in Polish ). The eastern part between Riesenburg ( Prabuty in Polish ) and Marienwerder ( Kwidzyn in Polish ) was given the number 218, the western part between Münsterwalde ( Opalenie Tczewskie in Polish ) and Königsbruch number 238.
