The route branched off east of the Isar at the Munich Northeast junction from the Munich North Ring and ran in a straight direction to the southeast. With the local railway to Ismaning , which joined the Nordring shortly after the junction, there was an almost right-angled crossing at the same level. In the further course, the route led over 7.7 kilometers through the flat, partly boggy terrain of the Johanneskirchener Moos and the edge areas of the Erdinger Moos , partly on a dam several meters high . The Ismaninger Weg, the Apenrader Straße and the Hüllgraben were crossed on bridges. At Feldkirchen station , she reached the railway line from Munich via Mühldorf to Simbach . The route served to connect the Mühldorfer Bahn to the freight rail network, which could not be realized in the area of ​​Zamdorf and Trudering due to lack of space. An extension to the Munich – Rosenheim railway line near Zorneding was not completed.

The new clasp was put into operation on January 1, 1942. It was designed for double-track operation from the start, but the second track was not laid. The connection was of considerable importance during the Second World War , especially after the inner-city railway lines were bombed in Munich . When the Föhringen railway bridge over the Isar was blown up at the end of April 1945, operations also ended on the Spange. After the end of the war, freight cars that were no longer needed were parked on this. In 1949 the line was shut down and the tracks were subsequently dismantled. Most of the embankment and engineering structures have been preserved. After the closure, a 300-meter-long section of track at Feldkirchen station was still used as a siding . The track has since been closed, but is still there.

During the construction of the embankment through the Johanneskirchener Moos, workers from the Reichsbahn labor camp at Johanneskirchener Straße 115 (today Bichlhofweg, corner of Freischützstraße), which had a capacity for 800 people, were deployed. Around 80 workers from Slovakia and 70 from Yugoslavia were housed there in October 1939 (686 prisoners of war were employed by the Reichsbahn in 1944).
