The Ringgleis (hi-)story: Jumping from a train bridge because of lovesickness

Also the Ringgleis has its history. This Saturday it is told in a different way. Hans-W. Fechtel, an engineer, reports with the help of Wolfgang Henschel, the former head of the Brunswieck Westbahnhof, about the changeful history of the Brunswieck railway.

Corona diary: The rail trail challenge

“Two blondes are looking for the rail trail? Sure!” I hear you gaggling. For some of you it might even be a thigh-slapper. But be careful, matey, if you can do better! Okay, I admit that today we did the rail trail challenge for the second time. And well, again we missed the right way at some point. It is
