|} The Karlsruhe freight bypass railway (ドイツ語:Güterumgehungsbahn Karlsruhe) is railway line reserved for freight only in the southeast of the city of Karlsruhe in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. The freight rail bypass allows freight trains to avoid the busy Karlsruhe Central Station (''Hauptbahnhof'') on a separate direct line. The freight rail bypass is classified as a main line and has two tracks throughout and is electrified. It has the highest German track class of D4, which means that the line is built for axle loads of 22.5 tonnes and loads of 8.0 tonnes per metre of train. The PZB 90 intermittent cab signalling system is used on the freight rail bypass. This contrasts with the parallel access line to the central station, which is protected by the LZB train protection system. ==History== The line was opened in 1895 with the marshalling yard it served in the southeast of the city. In the northeast it was connected via a branch line from the Rhine Valley Railway running between the old Karlsruhe Hauptbahnhof and the old Durlach station. Another connection was opened in 1895, passing under the Hauptbahnhof–Durlach line to the Rhine Railway to Graben. In the southwest, there were also connections to the existing line from the old Hauptbahnhof to Ettlingen-West, and—after crossing under them—the lines to Wörth and to Durmersheim (also opened in 1895). In 1913, the new Karlsruhe Hauptbahnhof was built near the marshalling yard. The freight lines were engineered so that they largely avoided crossing the passenger lines to the Hauptbahnhof. The old Karlsruhe freight yard had been connected directly to the old Rhine Valley Railway on the line to the old Hauptbahnhof near the city centre, so the dead-end yard was now only accessible via the bypass from the direction of Hagsfeld, or via a track construction plant from the old Durlach–Karlsruhe line from the north side or via another track from this line from the south side. The same was true of access to the old Durlach freight yard. Even the former Karlsruhe locomotive workshop near the former Karlsruhe freight yard was now only accessible via the bypass. Passenger services were introduced in 1913 on the bypass because the lines from the new central station ran to the Palatinate via Karlsruhe West and the new Mühlburg station via this line. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Karlsruhe freight bypass railway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
