Bridge over the Giegel Aa (funny name) |
Rails, backpack, tent near Spelle. |
"Halt für Zugfahrten" (hikers
not mentioned) and real trafficlights on this foggy morning |
A crosstie and a sign block the rails for
trains coming from Rheine. From this point on to Rheine the railway is still
in use. |
"Das Sanitätshaus", formerly
known as Bahnhof Spelle. Trains can still reach the station and its loading
platform as the tracks are maintained and free from growth, though the somewhat
rusty tracks suggest this does not occure often. |
The concrete factory on the right is visited
more often. Note the telegraph poles, out of use because in many places
the wires are missing or have fallen down. |
A row of cars with concrete elements is
standing ready to be taken away. |
Bridge crossing the Dortmund-Ems canal |
After the highway A30, a switch to a new
container (road-rail) terminal. |
Though the crane is obviously second-hand.
Previously it was located at Rheine Rangierbahnhof (shunting yard) (thanks Armin Mühl) |
