}} }} The Borsdorf–Coswig railway is a mainline railway in the German state of Saxony, originally built and operated by the Leipzig-Dresden Railway Company. It runs mostly along the Freiberger Mulde from Borsdorf via Döbeln and Meissen to Coswig near Dresden. It is part of a long distance connection from Leipzig to Dresden, but is now used for local traffic only. ==History == Meissen had been linked since 1 December 1860 to the Leipzig–Dresden railway by a branch line from Coswig. On 7 July 1864 the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company ((ドイツ語:Leipzig-Dresdner Eisenbahn-Compagnie) submitted an application to build a second rail link between Leipzig and Dresden. It provided for a route along the Freiberger Mulde from Döbeln to Meissen to connect with the existing branch line from Coswig. On 16 January 1866 the company was granted a concession for the construction of the line. Work began on 4 August 1865 near Borsdorf. The line was opened as follows: *14 May 1866: Borsdorf–Grimma *27 October 1867: Grimma–Leisnig *2 June 1868: Leisnig–Döbeln *25 October 1868: Döbeln–Nossen *22 December 1868: Nossen–Meissen On 1 July 1876, the Leipzig-Dresden Railway Company was nationalized and the line was then controlled by the Royal Saxon State Railways. Between 1898 and 1909, the Borsdorf–Großbothen and Döbeln–Coswig sections were duplicated. Duplication was also later started between Großbothen and Döbeln, but only the Großbothen–Tanndorf section was completed because of the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939. One of the largest construction projects of the interwar period was the rebuilding of the bridge over the Elbe in Meissen. Between 1925 and 1926, the Lauchhammer-Rheinmetall company rebuilt it with a new steel truss superstructure. The bridge escaped demolition in 1945, so the original bridge is now preserved, but it has only had a single track since 1946. After the Second World War one track of the line was dismantled to provide reparations to the Soviet Union. In 1970, the Coswig–Meissen-Triebischtal section was electrified for Dresden suburban services. On 18 December 1970, electric train operations started. A little later—in September 1973—the section was included in the network of the newly established Dresden S-Bahn. After that all rail services were broken in Meissen, with services operating between the Leipzig and Meissen and between Meissen–Triebischtal and Dresden, requiring a change of trains. Even express trains on the line only ran between Leipzig and Meissen. 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「Borsdorf–Coswig railway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
