Abstract: A rolling train with a hot-rolling group, furnaces arranged upstream of the hot-rolling group and at least two continuous casting machines as well as cutting shears in front of and possibly behind the furnaces, wherein a furnace having a great length is provided for each continuous casting machine, the furnaces are constructed so as to be transversely displaceable, and the furnaces can be moved from the continuous casting lines into a common rolling line which deviates with respect to its location from the continuous casting lines, wherein the furnaces are divided in the longitudinal direction thereof into segments, and wherein the segments can be moved transversely individually and independently of each other.
