Here the old and new trackbed meet, looking
towards Oebisfelde. The railway used to go straight ahead (hardly visible),
but it now bends away to the east. |
Leftover ties and warning crosses at a crossroad.
The tracks were probably removed when it became clear that a new bridge
would be too costly. |
Bridge crossing the Allerkanal |
Though it was one of the reasons for closing
the railroad in 2002, the bridge in question across the Mittellandkanal
is still in existence in 2007. |
The north side looks a bit less rusty. |
A small thunderstorm passed by and I had to take shelter from heavy rainfall
for a few minutes. Hence the wet look on the following pictures. |
Another small concrete bridge |
Buchhorst station with leftover platform
edges |
Small romantic station building in the shade
of large trees. From here on the tracks are still in place |
Looking back towards Buchhorst. |
Crossing the bridge into nature reserve
Drömling |
This time it's a steel bridge |
Lots of wildlife, I saw hares, deer and
foxes. Here is a deer on the railroad. |
