Glan Valley Railway
Neither the Kusel line nor the Glan Valley Railway have ever been used by significant long-distance services. Since Altenglan was a junction of the Kusel line and the Glan Valley Railway and was relatively centrally located on the latter, all long-distance services that ran on the Glan Valley Railway stopped at the station. So in 1926 and 1927, the Calais-Wiesbaden-Express ran over the Glan Valley Railway (but only towards Wiesbaden) with a stop in Altenglan. In November 1942 there was a pair of fast services on the Berlin–Kassel–Frankfurt–Altenglan–Homburg–Metz route for troops on leave, but only with special arrangement. In 1945 and 1946 a pair of express trains ran on the route between Saarbrücken and Koblenz for the last time, but access to it for civilian traffic was restricted. This was also the last continuous passenger service over the Glan Valley Railway, including the Odernheim–Bad Münster section, which was closed in the early 1960s.
