}} }} The Erft Railway ((ドイツ語: Erftbahn) is a line in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The non-electrified main line was originally built as a line of the Bergheim District Railway (''Bergheimer Kreisbahn'') and operated as a metre gauge railway. Later, the line was converted to standard gauge. The Erft Railway is now only served by a Regionalbahn service. == Operations and history== The Bedburg–Horrem–Mödrath line was opened in 1896 as part of the Bergheim District Railway. In 1983, the Horrem–Quadrath-Ichendorf section was electrified because of its high freight traffic, but in 1996 its catenary was dismantled. As of 2 June 1991, trains ran through from Neuss to Horrem, continuing in the peak hour to Cologne. From 15 December 2002, the rail service was extended throughout the day to Cologne. On 1 November 2007, the rest of the line was also connected to the electronic signalling centre. At the same time, all older level crossings were upgraded to the state of the art with flashing lights. The crossing at Bahnhofstraße in Holzheim had been equipped with a full barrier and a gatekeeper who visually checked whether the tracks were free of vehicles; this is now done with a radar scanner. 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「Erft Railway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
