This north to east curve is used by trains between the Elmshorn line and Hamburg Dammtor which are not booked to call at Hamburg-Altona. Most trains between Hamburg Hbf and Kiel Hbf or Flensburg use this route. ''RE'' services to Westerland mostly start and terminate at Hamburg-Altona. It is intended to close Hamburg-Altona station, replacing it with a new through station to the north, which may open in December 2023.  That will result in this curve being replaced by a new line to the south.

Between Hamburg Hbf and Hamburg-Harburg there are, in addition to the ''S-Bahn'' tracks, two pairs of tracks - one designated Pz-Gl (passenger line) and the other Gz-Gl (goods line), the latter being located between the ''S-Bahn'' tracks and the Pz-Gl.

All four tracks are used for passenger trains as operating convenience requires. They share common alignment south of Abzw Oberhafen (where the goods line from Rothenburgsort joins), but north-west of there, the Pz-Gl are at higher level, whereas the Gz-Gl follow a slightly different alignment at ground level via Abzw Ericus. A single-track connection from Abzw Ericus passes under the Pz-Gl and joins the southbound Pz-Gl at Abzw Norderelbbrücke.

The Gz-Gl are used, as required, by passenger trains to avoid conflicting moves at Hamburg Hbf. The connection to Abzw Norderelbbrücke, in particular, enables trains from platforms 8, 11 & 12 at Hamburg Hbf to reach the southbound Pz-Gl without crossing the northbound track on the level.

South of Abzw Wilhelmsburg an additional pair of tracks, designated Hafen-Gl (harbour line), run broadly parallel to the main line on the approach to Hamburg-Harburg.

This route comprises the Hamburg Ring line from the Elmshorn line around the north and east sides of the city. It is common with DE24/064 between Pinneberg and Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro, with DE24/052 between Hamburg-Horn and Hamburg Hbf and with DE24/053 between Rothenburgsort Ro and Hamburg Hbf. Trains between Elmshorn and Hamburg Hbf may be diverted this way if the main line via Dammtor is blocked.

IC2312 09:45 Dortmund - Westerland

This route, via part of the Hamburg eastern ring line, allows trains to run between the Lübeck and Hamburg-Harburg lines without reversal at Hamburg Hbf.  It is common with route DE24/052 between Hamburg-Wandsbek and Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro and with route DE24/063 between Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro and Abzw Oberhafen.

[100, 120] (ERA-E 45C5 not shown; ERA-R 82B4; S+W ''119C3-119D3'') DE24/063
 
This line is used by trains between the Büchen line and Hamburg-Harburg if not calling at Hamburg Hbf. It is common with DE23/062 and DE23/064 between Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro and Hamburg-Harburg.
 
Trains usually join or leave the main line to Büchen by line 1280 at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Tk (Tiefstack) but may also join further west, via line 1291, at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Rop. Trains were diverted this way, not calling at Hamburg Hbf or Dammtor but calling additionally at Hamburg-Bergedorf, between 15 and 27 July 2023. A traveller during this period reported that the route via line 1280 was preferred in both directions, with trains waiting for this line to clear before proceeding, rather than using the alternative line 1291.
 
The following trains are booked to use this route:

This line is used by trains between the Hamburg-Harburg and Büchen lines, if not calling at Hamburg Hbf. Most trains run via Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro, so joining or leaving the main line to Büchen at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Tk (Tiefstack). Some do not have a timing point at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro, so may join or leave the main line further west, via line 1291, at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Rop.
This route comprises the Hamburg Ring line from the Elmshorn line around the north and east sides of the city (DE24/061) with the connection towards Hamburg-Harburg, avoiding Hamburg Hbf (DE24/062 and 063).


All trains between the Harburg and Büchen lines reverse at Hamburg Hbf in the current timetable, so there is no scheduled passenger use of this route.
This diversion was used on a few occasions in 2023.

Hamburg Hbf – Hamburg-Harburg (Abzw Oberhafen/Abzw Norderelbbrücke) (via goods line)

[110, 120, 121] (ERA-E 45C5 not shown; ERA-R 82B4 not shown; S+W 119C3-120D4) DE24/054

Between Hamburg Hbf and Hamburg-Harburg there are, in addition to the S-Bahn tracks, two pairs of tracks - one designated Pz-Gl (passenger line) and the other Gz-Gl (goods line), the latter being located between the S-Bahn tracks and the Pz-Gl.

All four tracks are used for passenger trains as operating convenience requires, although use of the Pz-Gl is more usual. They share a common alignment south of Abzw Oberhafen (where the goods line from Rothenburgsort joins), but north-west of there the Pz-Gl are at higher level whereas the Gz-Gl follow a slightly different alignment at ground level via Abzw Ericus. A single-track connection from Abzw Ericus passes under the Pz-Gl and joins the southbound Pz-Gl at Abzw Norderelbbrücke.

The Gz-Gl are used, as required, by passenger trains to avoid conflicting moves at Hamburg Hbf. The connection to Abzw Norderelbbrücke, in particular, enables trains from platforms 8, 11 & 12 at Hamburg Hbf to reach the southbound Pz-Gl without crossing the northbound track on the level.

Route indicators associated with signals at the south end of Hamburg Hbf show the line to be used. 'P' indicates use of the Pz-Gl and 'H' the Gz-Gl.

Hamburg Hbf (Abzw Wilhelmsburg) – Hamburg-Harburg (via harbour line)

[121] (ERA-E 45C5-45C4 not shown; ERA-R 82B4 not shown; S+W 120D3-120D4) DE24/055

South of Abzw Wilhelmsburg an additional pair of tracks, designated Hafen-Gl (harbour line), run broadly parallel to the main line on the approach to Hamburg-Harburg. They are normally used by RE5 Cuxhaven line trains, but until 26 July 2024 only one Friday-only train runs through from Hamburg Hbf with all the others starting and terminating at Hamburg-Harburg.

D1 FO RE14595 16:04 Hamburg Hbf – Cuxhaven

D1: Until 26 July 2024

From 30 July 2024, Cuxhaven line trains revert to running through to and from Hamburg Hbf hourly every day.

Obscure services: Lines used on an occasional basis for engineering work diversions

Pinneberg (Hamburg-Eidelstedt En) – Hamburg Hbf (via Hamburg-Lokstedt and Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro)

[131] (ERA-E 45B5-45C5; ERA-R 82B5-82B4; S+W 120B1-119C3) DE24/061

This route comprises the Hamburg Ring line from the Elmshorn line around the north and east sides of the city. It is common with DE24/064 between Pinneberg and Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro, with DE24/052 between Hamburg-Horn and Hamburg Hbf and with DE24/053 between Rothenburgsort Ro and Hamburg Hbf. Trains between Elmshorn and Hamburg Hbf may be diverted this way if the main line via Dammtor is blocked.

Until 28 March 2024 the following two trains run via this route:

IC2312 09:45 Dortmund - Westerland

IC2311 09:23 Westerland - Dortmund

Hamburg-Wandsbek – Hamburg-Harburg (Abzw Oberhafen) (via Horn and Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro)

[104] (ERA-E 45C5 part shown; ERA-R 82B4; S+W 119D2-119C3) DE24/062

This route, via part of the Hamburg eastern ring line, allows trains to run between the Lübeck and Hamburg-Harburg lines without reversal at Hamburg Hbf. It is common with route DE24/052 between Hamburg-Wandsbek and Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro and with route DE24/063 between Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro and Abzw Oberhafen.

Hamburg-Bergedorf (Rothenburgsort) – Hamburg-Harburg (Abzw Oberhafen)

[100, 120] (ERA-E 45C5 not shown; ERA-R 82B4; S+W 119C3-119D3) DE24/063

This line is used by trains between the Büchen line and Hamburg-Harburg if not calling at Hamburg Hbf. It is common with DE23/062 and DE23/064 between Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Ro and Hamburg-Harburg.

Trains usually join or leave the main line to Büchen by line 1280 at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Tk (Tiefstack) but may also join further west, via line 1291, at Hamburg-Rothenburgsort Rop. Trains were diverted this way, not calling at Hamburg Hbf or Dammtor but calling additionally at Hamburg-Bergedorf, between 15 and 27 July 2023. A traveller during this period reported that the route via line 1280 was preferred in both directions, with trains waiting for this line to clear before proceeding, rather than using the alternative line 1291.

The following trains are booked to use this route:

D1 SX ICE1677 Stralsund Hbf – 17:25 Schwerin Hbf – Hannover Hbf / Frankfurt (Main) Hbf
D2 SSuX ICE1278 Hannover Hbf – 07:19 Hamburg-Harburg – Stralsund Hbf

D1: 30 September - 22 November 2024

D2: 11 December 2023 - 29 February 2024

[131] (ERA-E 45B5-45C5; ERA-R 82B5-82B4; S+W 120B1-119C3) DE24/064

This route comprises the Hamburg Ring line from the Elmshorn line around the north and east sides of the city (DE24/061) with the connection towards Hamburg-Harburg, avoiding Hamburg Hbf (DE24/062 and 063).

This diversion was used on a few occasions in 2023.
