history

Priority share for 400 kroner of the local railway Lemberg (Kleparow) -Jaworow from February 1903

At the instigation of the Galizische Aktien-Hypothekenbank in Lemberg, Count Wilhelm Siemieński-Lewicki and Count Roman Potocki , the project of a standard-gauge local railway from the station Lemberg (Kleparów) (today Klepariw - district of Lemberg ) to Janów (today Iwano-Frankowe ), possibly to Jaworów (today Jaworiw ) and in the other direction from Lemberg (Kleparów) to the city of Lemberg (St. Anna) submitted to the Ministry of Commerce in 1893 and also approved in 1894. The routing of the route from Lviv to Janów was finally approved, but the route to the city of Lviv was not because of the rejection by the city itself. After the concession had been granted on January 1, 1895, the railway was opened on November 25, 1895 as a local railway partly run as a tram with locomotives. The originally planned route ran from Lemberg (the train station was in the suburb of Kleparów) to Janów with a length of 22.252 kilometers. On the section between Kleparów and Rzęsna Polska (today Rjasne / Рясне - district of Lemberg) the tracks of the Lemberg – Bełżec (Tomaszów) railway were also used as a péage line .

The company was finally founded on November 26, 1898 and was initially called "Lemberg (Kleparów) –Janów", but was renamed "Lemberg (Kleparów) –Jaworów" due to the extension of the line at the end of 1902.

On November 14, 1903, after a concession had been granted on December 14, 1902, the extension from Janów to Jaworów was opened with a length of 31.223 kilometers, the total length of the route was now 53.569 kilometers. The operation was handled entirely by the kk Austrian State Railways , the operating contract for this was concluded on October 31, 1895 and renewed and expanded on January 15, 1904. After the end of the First World War, the railway was taken over by the Polish State Railways , which in turn was taken over by the Soviet Railways from 1940/1945 . In the 1960s, the section from Ivano-Frankowe to Jaworiw was discontinued and a new building from Kamjanobrid ( railway line Kamjanobrid-Jaworiw ) was built, so that today only the no longer served trunk line Lviv-Ivano-Frankowe exists.
