2203:) until 2009. The supporters of replacement of buses pointed out that cost recovery on the line was about 19 percent (against 63 percent in the S3 service on the Hauenstein base tunnel line or 70 to 80 percent for trams in suburbs of Basel in Basel-Country) and that the limited resources available for public transport could be more effectively used for the promotion of rail transport in the more densely populated urban areas, while buses would be more suitable for serving the villages in the Homburger valley served by the line with its rather large distances between stations. On the other hand, the advocates of maintaining rail services pointed out that buses never offered an equivalent replacement for trains (for example in terms of comfort and punctuality). 2166:. Nevertheless rescue parties pressed on, but they had to be called off when 11 rescuers died from carbon monoxide poisoning and many others lost consciousness. Attempts were made to improve air circulation, but nothing helped. On the eighth day after the accident they finally broke through. They found all 52 miners dead behind the collapsed section of the tunnel. It seemed that they had died from gas poisoning on the first day after the accident. The accident cost a total of 63 lives. 2153:
structure of the Jura had been underestimated. On the south side from Trimbach the drive made good progress, but on the north side problems accumulated. Although the hard limestone could be pierced, water flooded the tunnel and continually threatened to drown the workers. Since the tunnel dropped slightly from north to south, water had to be collected from the northern section and laboriously pumped by hand out of the tunnel.

On 28 May 1857, a fire spread from a forge at the top of one of the shafts into the tunnel and set alight its lining boards and their supporting beams. Some workers were able to escape before the collapse of the burning rafters. A massive amount of earth fell into the tunnel and cut off 52 workers.

After the construction of the base tunnel the old Hauenstein line lost traffic and in 1938 it was reduced from double to single line. In the late 1990s the line was threatened with closure. In 1997 operations were replaced by buses for a year, but since then regional trains again operate between
