On the construction of the Bavarian Forest railway from Plattling via Deggendorf and Zwiesel to Bayerisch Eisenstein in 1873, the roadbed of the Deggendorf–Plattling line could not be used, because the new railway line had to be laid northwest of the old route due to the steep inclines near the edge of the Bavarian Forest and this required a higher station at Deggendorf. In addition the "Ostbahn" moved the station at Plattling some several hundred metres further west. As a result, the Deggendorf–Plattling Railway ceased running services on 16 September 1877 on the opening of the Forest railway by the Royal Bavarian State Railways which had taken over the "Ostbahn" on 15 May 1875.
