Schematic: the line joins the points of the Location Code List in their order – not to scale, not a navigation map. Where the list has a gap, the line breaks too.

Broken between Mönchengladbach-Odenkirchen junction and Mönchengladbach-Ost junction: the Location Code List gives no course in between, so we draw no line there.
Broken between Essen-Heisingen junction and Dortmund/Unna interchange: the Location Code List gives no course in between, so we draw no line there.
Broken between Kassel-Süd interchange and Kassel-Ost junction: the Location Code List gives no course in between, so we draw no line there.

1 reports lie too far from the line and are in the lists only.
