The Tomelilla – Simrishamn railway is a standard-gauge Swedish railway line . It was built by Cimbrishamn-Tomelilla Jernväg (CTJ), a private railway company , between Tomelilla and Simrishamn , which was called Cimbrishamn until well into the 1910s .

The line is now part of the Ystad – Simrishamn railway line , which has been known as Österlenbanan since the Swedish lines were named by Banverket around 1990 .

history

Cimbrishamn-Tomelilla Jernväg was one of five when operated with steam railcar Railroads in Scania ( Swedish Ångspårvägar ) designated railway lines in Skane . These were railway lines that were built as cheaply as possible for reasons of cost. Lighter rails were used and steam railcars were used in train operations, in which the conductor also performed that of the stoker in addition to his duties. The railcars could carry a few freight or passenger cars.

Cimbrishamn – Tomelilla Jernväg

The concession for the route was granted on March 24, 1882, the opening for public transport took place on December 16, 1882. The construction cost was 663,000 crowns and the vehicles cost 137,000 crowns. These costs were financed by subscriptions of shares by the city of Simrishamn in the amount of 106,000 kroner and eleven other municipalities in the amount of 125,000 kroner and a loan of 500,000 kroner.

After the opening, steam railcars operated according to the Rowan system . This system comes from Denmark , where William Rowan undertook experiments with a dampsporvej . The Danish Randers – Hadsundsbanen and Gribskovbanen were operated as the first railways of this type . The findings there formed the basis for the Ångspårvägar in Skåne. The first Swedish line of this type was Gärds Härads järnväg

The following vehicles were procured to operate the route:

A combined carriage with 1st and 3rd class was purchased for passenger transport in 1884. Two open freight cars were bought in 1894.

Sale to Malmö – Tomelilla Järnväg

After the opening of the railway line between Malmö and Tomelilla from Malmö – Tomelilla Järnvägsaktiebolag (MöToJ), this proposed joint management of the lines. MöToJ bought Cimbrishamn – Tomelilla Jernväg in early 1896 and paid in shares of the company for half the value of what was underwritten when the CTJ was founded. The line between Simrishamn and Tomelilla was equipped with heavier rails and thus brought into the same technical condition as the line between Malmö and Tomelilla.

As part of the merger of these and other companies, the new company was renamed Malmö-Simrishamns Järnväg .
