context_page_description: The Verden–Rotenburg railway is a single-track mainline in the German state of Lower Saxony, which connects Verden station on the Wunstorf–Bremen railway with Rotenburg station on the Wanne-Eickel–Hamburg railway.
  Together with the Nienburg–Minden railway, it represents the shortest direct connection between Hamburg and Ostwestfalen-Lippe with Bielefeld. It also serves as an important diversion route for the Intercity-Express and Intercity services on the Hanover–Hamburg railway. If the line between Verden and Bremen is closed, Regional-Express services are diverted via this line.
  The Deutsche Reichsbahn opened the line in 1928.
