	The main line was mainly used by freight trains. The maximum speed for freight trains was 80 km/h. For the passenger services there were regional trains (N=Nahverkehrszüge), fast regional trains (Ns=Nahschnellverkehrszüge) and express trains which had a stop in Kirchhain. Fast trains (D=Schnellzüge) existed for fast connections between Marburg (Lahn) and Gießen.		The main line was mainly used by freight trains. The maximum speed for freight trains was 80 km/h.

After training as a general trainee signalman, dispatchers were always paired with a person skilled in the signal box. This chapter is the brief introduction to the area. Read it carefully.

	~~Zugfahrten aus Gleis~~ 7 ~~Richtung Westen~~ (~~Richtung~~ Cölbe ~~oder~~ Gemünden (Wohra)) ~~waren nicht möglich, lediglich Rangierfahrten waren zugelassen~~. ~~Um als Passagier den Bahnsteig~~ 2 ~~erreichen zu können wurde nämlich ein ungesicherter Übergang über das Gleis 7 hinter dem Sperrsignal auf den Bahnsteig führend gebaut~~.		Train routes from track 7 towards the West (towards Cölbe or Gemünden (Wohra)) were not possible. Only shunt movements were possible. Main reason for this is that platform 2 could only be reached by passengers via an unattended level crossing located behind the shunt signal.

	~~Aus Gleis~~ 8 ~~waren dagegen Zugfahrten in östlicher Richtung nicht möglich~~, ~~aber auch hier gingen Rangierfahrten~~.		Train routes from track 8 to the east were not possible either, only shunt routes could be set into that direction.

	~~Grundsätzlich war der Bahnhof~~ Kirchhain ~~wie die Hauptstrecke bereits elektrifiziert. Das Gleis~~ 7 ~~sowie die östlich befindlichen Rangierbereiche waren jedoch ohne Oberleitung~~. ~~Auch die Nebenbahnen konnten nur mit Dampf oder Diesel befahren werden~~.		The tracks in the station of Kirchhain and the main line were electrified, except for track 7 and the tracks in the shunt yard on the east side. The branch line could be serviced by steam or diesel trains only as well.

	~~Morgens verkehrten Nahgüterzüge~~ (Ng)~~, die Wagons für die Nebenbahn und für den Bahnhof~~ Kirchhain ~~abstellten~~. ~~Abends kamen wiederum~~ Ng~~, die die bereitgestellten Wagons wieder zu den Knotenpunkten~~ in Marburg ~~oder~~ Treysa ~~brachten~~.		Freight trains (Ng) delivered wagons with the branch lines as destination as well as Kirchhain itself. In the evening other Ng trains picked up the assembled wagons to be brought to the hubs in Marburg or Treysa.

	~~Um die morgens bereit gestellten Wagons auf den Nebenbahnen zu verteilen und abends Wagons für die Ng bereit zu stellen kam werktags vom Bahnbetriebswerk Treysa eine~~ [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DB-Baureihe_V_100 BR 211]. ~~In Kirchhain wurde neben den zu verteilenden Wagons noch ein~~ [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begleitwagen ~~Güterzugbegleitwagen~~] ~~angehängt~~, in ~~dem sich die~~ [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangierer ~~Rangierbegleiter~~] ~~während der Fahrt aufhielten~~. ~~Als Übergabezug (~~Üb~~) befuhr die ehemalige V100 dann die Nebenbahnen~~.		A [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DB-Baureihe_V_100 BR 211] loc from the depot in Treysa came down from on weekdays for the shunting operations after the arrival of the freight trains and before departure of those freight trains. A [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begleitwagen Freight train accompanying-car] was hooked up to the arriving freight train, in which the [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangierer shunt personel] resided during the journey. A V100 loc was used for the Üb-freight trains on the branch lines.

	~~Im Bahnhof war eine~~ [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DR-Kleinlokomotive_Leistungsgruppe_II Köf] ~~stationiert, die für örtliche Rangierarbeiten genutzt wurde~~. ~~Im Bahnhofsbereich befanden sich diverse Gleisanschlüsse zu Kornsilos~~, ~~zu einem Tanklager der Bundeswehr und ein Anschluss zur~~ [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marburger_Tapetenfabrik Marburger Tapetenfabrik]. ~~Ankommende Nahgüterzüge können~~ in ~~der Simulation entweder mit den vorgegebenen Rangierbefehlen abgearbeitet werden oder~~, ~~ähnlich wie~~ in Wuppertal-Langerfeld, ~~mit der im Bahnhof befindlichen~~ Köf ~~in Eigenregie sortiert und bewegt werden~~.		A [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DR-Kleinlokomotive_Leistungsgruppe_II Köf] was located at the station for the local shunt operation. here were various sidings within the station area like to grain silos, to a storage tank of the German army and a connection to the [http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marburger_Tapetenfabrik Marburger Tapetenfabrik]. In the simulation arriving freight trains can be handled using the built-in shunt movements, or like in Wuppertal-Langerfeld, the Köf can be directed "manually" to do the shunt operations.

	~~Der im Bahnhofsbereich befindliche Bahnübergang~~ "Niederrheinische Straße" ~~war nicht fahrstraßengesteuert sondern wurde entweder per Schlüssel oder per Magnet vom Zug ausgelöst~~.		The level crossing "Niederrheinische Straße" is not operated by setting train routes over it. It is activated by key and deactivated by a magnet underneath the train.
	~~Der Bahnübergang~~ "Hainmühle" ~~dagegen war und ist wohl auch heute noch eine~~ Anrufschranke, ~~die grundsätzlich geschlossen ist~~. ~~Nur wenn ein Anruf kommt und jemand den Übergang passieren möchte wird die Schranke kurzfristig geöffnet~~, ~~nach dem Passieren sofort wieder geschlossen~~.		The level crossing "Hainmühle" however was and still is a so-called Anrufschranke, which is mainly closed. Only when a call is made by someone willing to cross the level crossing, the barriers are opened shortly and closed again after the level crossing has been passed .

	~~Auf~~ den ~~eingleisigen Nebenbahnen mussten~~ die ~~Züge angemeldet~~ und ~~eine Bestätigung~~ der ~~Annahme~~ der ~~Züge vom Nachbarfahrdienstleiter eingeholt~~ werden.		Trains on the branch lines must be announced and accepted by the neighbouring dispatcher.
