This video being part of my first venture into Germany . I decided to alight on my way back into Belgium, at this wonderful station, rather reminiscent of York station with it's 3 arched roof and curved platforms. I again witnessed several of the Electric Class DB Locomotives and the Diesel class 360. The SNCB Class 1800 Locomotive put in an appearance as well. A much quieter station with the odd freight passing through, than Koln but still interesting. I hope you enjoy the series and if you are from the area or know the area featured that it will evoke many fond memories.
A special thank you to the kind co-operation from the DB staff at all the locations ...
