In September 2009, the Nordbahn won the transport of its existing line Neumünster - Bad Oldesloe and additionally the traffic on the relation Neumünster – Heide – Büsum , which was previously carried out by the Schleswig-Holstein-Bahn (a brand of the parent company AKN). Both lines have been in operation since December 11, 2011 for a period of ten years.
These routes are served as planned with LINT 41 vehicles. The vehicles are serviced in the AKN workshops in Kaltenkirchen and Neumünster Süd.
In April 2012, Nordbahn won the tender for operation for 13 years from December 2014 on the two regional train lines on the route from Itzehoe and Wrist to Hamburg Hauptbahnhof and Hamburg-Altona. It thus emerged as the winner of the "Netz Mitte" network alongside Deutsche Bahn.
