The local ironworks, in operation since 1671, had been one of the primary reasons to build the first railway in the region. The Aalen–Wasseralfingen section of the Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt–Aalen railway was opened in 1861. The extension to Nördlingen followed in 1863. The ironworks still exist as a company (SHW), but are now mostly an automotive supplier and do not use the railway any more.
