These are tracks of the Württemberg Black Forest Railway, a railway line from Stuttgart to Calw that was opened in 1872.
The Stuttgart – Weil der Stadt section was electrified in the 1930s and has been part of the Stuttgart S-Bahn network since 1978.
The section between Weil der Stadt and Calw, on the other hand, lost importance and was decommissioned in the 1980s. It is to be reactivated and used again as the "Hermann-Hesse-Bahn" from 2023.translated by•February 13, 2020
