On 25 April 1895, a railway was opened between Nättraby and Alnaryd by the eponymous company based in Nättraby. This railway was extended north to Eringsboda on 1 July 1905. Another railway was opened from Eringsboda to Älmeboda on 21 December 1910 by a different company. Because the latter was in practice an extension of the one from Nättraby to Eringsboda, it merged along with its owner into the Nättraby–Eringsboda railway the following year.[2]
