Train service resumes on Halberstadt-Wernigerode rail route - Road to Halberstadt and Wernigerode now distinct once more.
After a week-long closure, the railway line connecting Halberstadt and Wernigerode has reopened. The closure was due to damage to several crossings on the line.

Mitteldeutsche Bahn, a regional railway operator, is currently responsible for operating the lines between Halberstadt and Wernigerode, as well as the line between Halberstadt and Goslar. Mitteldeutsche Bahn took over operation of these lines about six months ago from Abellio.

The railway line between Halberstadt and Wernigerode has been reopened, and trains are once again running smoothly on this popular route.
The community policy concerning the alteration of transportation routes within the Harz region should be reviewed in light of the recent repair work on the railway line between Halberstadt and Wernigerode.
