Dachau–Altomünster railway

The first section from Dachau to Indersdorf was opened on 8 July 1912 and the whole line to Altomünster was commissioned as the "Dachauer Lokalbahn" on 18 December 1913.

At the time of the Bavarian Soviet Republic, the local railway was an important economic factor for the revolutionary government.

The money printed in the paper mill in Dachau could be transported directly to Munich without substantial detours.

[3] Originally, the construction was to begin in 2012, with completion scheduled for 2013,[4] but the work was repeatedly postponed.

The S-Bahn line was continuously electrified and a passing loop was installed between Bachem and Schwabhausen.

[9] There were delays in the construction and the railway could not be opened for operations as planned on 17 November, but services resumed at the timetable change on 14 December 2014.

The remaining pairs of trains run only between Altomünster and Dachau and contribute to a 30-minute interval service during the peak hour.

The formerly rather brisk freight transport for agricultural products (cereals, milk, cattle), coal, building materials, animal feed and fertilisers mostly ended before the reconstruction of the line in 1982.
