History

The line was opened on 15 December 1866.[1]

In 1984 it was electrified with a 3 kV DC overhead line.[2]

gollark: It does.
gollark: The server backups were apparently broken for a while due to a potatOS feature interacting oddly with tar.
gollark: <@!222424031368970240> From what they said elsewhere, SC is dead because "kaori", the dedicated server they run SC and other stuff on, failed in some way.
gollark: Yes, it runs a bunch of backend services for potatOS. Also other things.
gollark: Unlike the ultra-reliable osmarks.tk™ servers running SPUDNET, of course.
