The railway line Valšov – Rýmařov is a regional railway connection in the Czech Republic , which was originally built and operated by the kk Staatsbahnen (kkStB) as the state railway between Kriegsdorf and Römerstadt . It branches in Valšov ( Kriegsdorf ) from the railway line Olomouc-Opava východ and leads in Lower dies after Rýmařov ( Roman city ).
According to a decree of the Czech government, the line has been classified as a regional railway ("regionální dráha") since December 20, 1995.
history
On April 21, 1870 the kk priv. Moravian-Silesian Central Railway (MSCB) received the concession for its main line from Olomouc via Jägerndorf to the border at Leobschütz . Part of this concession was also the construction of several branching branch lines. Lines to Olbersdorf with a possible continuation to the Prussian Neisse , to Troppau , Römerstadt and Würbenthal were approved . However, the financial difficulties as a result of the founder crash of 1873 prevented the branch lines from being realized. In this situation, the Austrian state itself took the initiative and carried out the Kriegsdorf – Römerstadt connection (as well as the neighboring Erbersdorf – Würbenthal route ) on its own account.
The line was opened on October 15, 1878. The company was initially operated by MSCB, and from January 1, 1889 by kkStB itself.
In 1912, the local railway's timetable showed a total of four mixed pairs of trains. They needed between 39 and 56 minutes for the 14-kilometer route.
After the First World War , which Austria-Hungary lost , the line became the property of the newly founded Czechoslovak State Railways (ČSD). At the end of the 1920s there was a significant increase in the timetable and travel times were shortened to around 30–37 minutes for most trains. The winter timetable of 1937/38 recorded a total of nine pairs of trains that stopped at all intermediate stations.
After the Sudetenland was annexed to Germany in autumn 1938, the line came to the Deutsche Reichsbahn , Reichsbahndirektion Opole . In the imperial course book the connection was included as course book route 151w Kriegsdorf – Römerstadt . After the end of the Second World War , the route was completely returned to the ČSD.
On January 1, 1993, the line was transferred to the newly founded České dráhy (ČD) in the course of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia .
In the 2012 annual timetable, the route is served by a total of ten pairs of daily passenger trains, eight on Sundays. The majority of the trains are connected to and from Opava východ as the S10 line . The travel time is between 24 and 25 minutes, which corresponds to a cruising speed of 34 km / h.
