Deutsche Bahn Closes Railway Line Between Pegnitz and Hersbruck for Technical Inspections
Starting Friday, September 19, 2025, Deutsche Bahn (DB) has closed the railway line between Pegnitz (district of Bayreuth) and Hersbruck (district of Nuremberg Land) due to technical inspections of several century-old bridges in the Pegnitz valley. The duration of the closure is currently uncertain or indefinite.
The DB press office has announced that replacement bus services will be provided to ensure smooth connectivity between Pegnitz and Hersbruck. These buses will run hourly and will connect Pegnitz and Hersbruck, as well as other locations such as Bayreuth, Nuremberg, and Neuhaus.
The inspections, renovations, and modernizations have been planned for a long time and are necessary due to the complex topography of the location. The closure does not affect regional trains on the Hersbruck-Nuremberg route, and other regional trains will continue to run on this route.
Regional trains 30, 31, 32, and 38 are affected by the closure. The DB press office provided information about the replacement bus services, stating that they will serve connections between Pegnitz, Hersbruck, Bayreuth, Nuremberg, and Neuhaus.
The German Railway (DB) is responsible for the closure and subsequent renovations and modernizations. The inspections are focused on several bridges in the Pegnitz valley, and the DB is ensuring that all necessary precautions are taken to ensure the safety of the passengers and the integrity of the infrastructure.
The DB press office has also stated that the connections Bayreuth-Nuremberg, Pegnitz-Nuremberg, and Neuhaus-Nuremberg will be served by replacement buses. Passengers are advised to check the DB website or contact their local DB office for the most up-to-date information regarding the replacement bus services.
We will continue to provide updates on this closure as more information becomes available. In the meantime, we encourage passengers to plan their travel accordingly and to check the DB website or contact their local DB office for the most up-to-date information regarding the replacement bus services.
