The Täles Railway (German: Tälesbahn) is a branch line in the Stuttgart region of the German state of Baden-Württemberg. It is single-track and standard gauge, and is 8.9 kilometres (5.5 mi) long. It links Neuffen with Nürtingen, where it connects to the Neckar-Alb Railway from Stuttgart to Tübingen.[1]
The Tälesbahn is owned and operated by the Württembergische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (WEG), a member of the Veolia Transport group. The line is the oldest surviving operation of the WEG, having been opened by them in 1900.[1][2]
Passenger services on the Tälesbahn use a fleet of 4 Stadler Regio-Shuttle RS1 units with a partial low floor. The typical service pattern consists of either one or two trains an hour, depending on the day and time of day, with each train taking 12 minutes for its journey. There is no service on Sundays.[3][4]
