It runs from Leipzig through Altenburg, the Werdau wye junction, Reichenbach and Plauen to Hof. The Werdau–Hof section is part of the ''Saxon-Franconian trunk line'' (''Sachsen-Franken-Magistrale''), the line connecting Dresden and Nuremberg. Its first section opened in 1842 and it is one of the oldest railways in Germany. As a result of the division of Germany after the Second World War, the line lost considerable importance.

The remaining long-distance services ended In 2006. History After its founding in 1835, the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company (''Leipzig-Dresdner Eisenbahn ...
