| |
|
| |
| There are two single-track routes between Velký Osek and the line eastwards towards Chlumec nad Cidlinou: one (1.6 km long) direct to the north-east, and the other a 4.2 km loop line initially heading south-east and then curving round due north.
| |
| The hourly Praha - Nymburk - Chlumec - Hradec Králové and v.v. expresses use the loop line to avoid reversal at Velký Osek station. The 2-hourly through trains between Kolín and Chlumec use the direct curve.

| ===Čáslav – voj. letiště Chotusice===
| |
| (ERA 191B1, not shown; ''38'') CZ18/12
| |
|
| |
| A ca 5 km long branch runs northwards from the Třemošnice branch platform at Čáslav to serve Chotusice air base, home of the ''21. základna taktického letectva'' (21st Tactical Air Force Base). There are occasional shuttle services when there is an air show at the base.
| |
|
| |
| A service ran on 20 May 2017, with departures from Čáslav at 09:15, 10:15, 11:15, 12:15, 13:15, 14:00, 15:00, 16:00 and 17:00. This is an event that takes place every two years so may run in 2019.

| |
| [238] (ERA 196B5, not shown; ''56'') CZ18/13
| |
|
| |
| This is a connection between the Pardubice - Havlíčkův Brod line and the Havlíčkův Brod - Brno line.
| |
|
| |
| Havlíčkův Brod is a V-shaped station: platforms 1 - 4 serve the main (Praha -) Kolin - Brno line and platform 5, at an angle, the northern curve towards odb. Kubešův Mlýn (- Pardubice). It is not possible to tell from the timetable which route trains to/from the Pardubice line will use - the northern curve or via the Brno line and HB St. Tunel. However, almost all services are booked to use platform 5 and it appears that the northern curve is the normal route: the drivers change ends after arrival at Havlíčkův Brod and do not run via the Brno line and do a "balloon loop". Only those services booked to use platforms 1 - 4 are certain to run via HB St. Tunel.
| |
|
| |
| There were no reports of trains using this connection in 2015 or 2016, but the equivalent of the following train left from platform 1 in the 2012-2013 timetable

| === Česká Třebová yard staff train===
| |
| [260, 270] (ERA 192A1; ''83A'') CZ18/14
| |
|
| |
| An unadvertised service has been observed in recent years leaving at approximately 14:00 from a short concrete platform, one track further over from the last public platform at Česká Třebová station. It turns off the main line about 200 m south of the station and follows what are shown as lines 91 or 93 in the Malkus ''Atlas Drah'' - west of the locomotive depot, where there is a stop. It continues past the roundhouse and turntable and terminates at a platform opposite what is probably the hump control tower.
| |
| This is clearly an “end of shift” service as it is lightly loaded leaving Česká Třebová but very busy on the return working. The service is not intended for public use, so access may be refused. '''The compilers would appreciate information on this or any other such services that may run at other shift change times.'''
| |
|
| |
| This route has also been used in recent years by special shuttle services that run to the yards when there is an open day at the depot.
| |
|
| |
| === Česká Třebová goods lines===
| |
| [260, 270] (ERA 192A1; ''83A'') CZ18/15
| |
|
| |
| Steam specials originating at Česká Třebová sometimes run via the goods lines, although this is not always obvious from the advance information. Prospective patrons should enquire further.
| |
| Use of the following routes has been reported:
| |
|
| |
| *(Ústí nad Orlicí -) odb. Parnik - line 100 - 180° curve - marshalling yard - Česká Třebová
| |
| *Česká Třebová - line 200 - odb. Les - odb. Zádulka (- Brno)
| |
| *Česká Třebová - line 200 - odb. Les - 180° curve - Třebovice v Čechách (- Olomouc)

| ===Bílovice nad Svitavou (odb. Hady) – Brno Maloměřice Yard – Brno-Židenice===
| |
| [260] (ERA 95B2, ''79A'') CZ18/16
| |
|
| |
| Access to/egress from the north end of Maloměřice Yard from/to the Praha - Česká Třebová - Skalice nad Svitavou - Brno line is provided by two connections from odb. Hady, one on the north side of the main line and one on the south side. Several routes are possible through Maloměřice Yard. This route has been used by the following train. As it is allowed 8 min from Bílovice nad Svitavou to Brno-Židenice, as opposed to the 5 or 6 min allowed for all other trains, and is the only train to terminate at Brno-Židenice, it seems probable that this is the booked route. '''The compilers would welcome further reports.'''

| ===Křenovice horní n. – Holubice===
| |
| [300] (ERA 197B3-B4; ''75'') CZ18/19
| |
|
| |
| Most trains on the Brno - Přerov line use the connection between Blažovice (on the Brno - Veselí nad Moravou line) and Holubice. Some services run via the more southerly, single track line 300, on which there is a regular service between Brno and Křenovice horní nádraží. The small number of trains running via Křenovice horní n. and Holubice (all but one of them westbound services) can be identified in the timetable by a vertical wavy line against Blažovice. Route changes are sometimes made for pathing reasons to accommodate late running.
