The former railway line was expanded to become the railway line cycle path and is part of the Enztal cycle path. The Neuerburg – Zweifelscheid section was opened in 2002, the Zweifelscheid – Arzfeld section in 2005. The remainder of the route to Lünebach was expanded until 2007, where it was connected to the Pronsfeld – Waxweiler railway cycle path. The cycle path has been paved throughout since autumn 2011.

At the end of the 19th century, several petitions and memoranda from Prüm, the Bitburg district and the city of Neuerburg justified the demands for further railway lines in the South West Eifel with the necessary economic development of the districts. However, they were also unsuccessful because of the unresolved financing of the land acquisition costs and were ignored in Berlin. It was not until May 1902 that the Prussian state parliament approved a draft law, on the basis of which the construction of these railway lines and the Pronsfeld – Waxweiler line could begin in 1903. The construction was important for the economic development of the country, but was also approved for strategic military reasons (Schlieffen Plan). Both routes were officially opened on July 6, 1907. Kaiser Wilhelm II and, alternatively, Crown Prince Wilhelm were invited because of the importance of this event, but did not accept the invitation.

The view of both sides of the viaduct is commendable and very beautiful. A short stop and maybe a photo could be taken here.
