    From 1925, the so-called "Black Railway" ran from the lignite mines of the Ville near Hürth to Cologne-Sülz, which belonged to the Cologne-Bonner-Eisenbahn-Aktiengesellschaft. The extensive freight facilities in Sülz were served until 1974. After that, a new city district with the Justice Center was built there. Today, only this short section between the former Klettenberg junction station and the Gottesweg can be guessed at in the cityscape, as a cycle path was built here on the route.
