By the end of August of that year, 68,000 people had already had taken the "steam ride" to the Lößnitz,[4] which took twelve minutes according to a contemporary lithograph.

It names the locomotives that ran there as: Blitz, Bury and Comet and the passenger carriages as: Guttenberg, Gustav, Wittekind and Tell.

The first waiting room in the Lößnitz area was built at Weintraube station, which had to be replaced, however, with the introduction of running on the right in 1883.

[6] The opera conductor Ernst von Schuch, who lived in nearby Niederlößnitz, commuted to work from Weintraube station for many years.

The middle track could be used for trains running in both directions, but they could not stop in Radebeul-Weintraube because it lacked a platform.

The middle track was used for express train running west to overtake or for a normal traffic towards Dresden.
