Historic Fichtelgebirgsbahn
From today's perspective, the Fichtelgebirgsbahn consists of three parts that are directly connected to each other:
- the section Nuremberg - Schnabelwaid - Marktredwitz of the Nuremberg – Cheb railway line , opened between 1877 and 1878,
- the Schnabelwaid – Bayreuth railway line , opened in 1877, and
- the Marktredwitz – Oberkotzau section of the Weiden – Oberkotzau line , opened between 1877 and 1878.
The first part of the Fichtelgebirgsbahn was opened on July 15, 1877, the railway line from Nuremberg via Schnabelwaid to the city of Bayreuth, located on the southeastern edge of the Fichtelgebirge . There it had a connection to the leased railway from Bayreuth to Neuenmarkt, which had existed since 1853 .
On May 15, 1878, the branch line Schnabelwaid – Holenbrunn (to Marktredwitz part of today's main line Nürnberg – Cheb) was put into operation, which was connected to the Holenbrunn – Oberkotzau line opened on August 15, 1877 (part of today's main line Weiden – Oberkotzau) met.

Bayreuth – Warmensteinach railway line
- Since its partial reactivation to Weidenberg in 2007, local initiatives also refer to the Bayreuth – Warmensteinach railway as the Fichtelgebirgsbahn. However, it is only the last of the former seven branch lines into the Fichtelgebirge. This means that the name "Fichtelgebirgsbahn" was given again after 130 years and is now ambiguous.
