and semi-fast passenger trains ran in the 1930s via Falkenberg, such as a pair of express trains between Kassel and Breslau (now Wrocław in Poland). Until the 1990s, a series of express trains ran in the east–west direction via Falkenberg, including an inter-zone train between Frankfurt (Oder) and Frankfurt (Main). In the first half of the 1990s, the rail services were harmonised in an integrated regular-interval timetable. In the 1995–96 timetable the following services operated from Falkenberg (Elster), each every two hours: InterRegio: Leipzig–Falkenberg–Doberlug-Kirchhain–Cottbus (portions from Leipzig coming originally from other stations) Regional-Express: Schwedt–Berlin–Falkenberg–Ruhland–Cottbus Regionalbahn: Leipzig–Falkenberg (with extra trains in the peak) Regionalbahn: Falkenberg–Riesa (gap in the regular interval pattern in the morning) Regionalbahn: Falkenberg–Herzberg Stadt Regionalbahn: Falkenberg–Ruhland Regionalbahn: Falkenberg–Doberlug-Kirchhain–Cottbus Regionalbahn: Lutherstadt Wittenberg–Falkenberg (with extra trains in the peak) There were three Regional-Express trains a day from Wittenberg (with part of the train originating in Aschersleben) to Görlitz. The regional services beyond Herzberg Stadt (town) were discontinued as early as 1995. In April 1998, passenger services also ended between Falkenberg and Herzberg Stadt. In May 2001, the Deutsche Bahn InterRegio service between Leipzig, Falkenberg and Cottbus was replaced by a Regional-Express service. Passenger services between Falkenberg and Riesa ended at the timetable change in December 2004. Over the years there have been several more service changes, including the introduction of a Regional-Express service from Leipzig via Falkenberg to Ruhland and Hoyerswerda. This service was introduced in December 2013 as the S 4 service of the S-Bahn Mitteldeutschland. The station is served by the following services:.
