Hamburg Eisenbahnen - 1978
9th February 2006

During February, March and April of 1978 I was fortunate enough to spend four weekends in Hamburg on a training course, and of course trains were the main reason why I volunteered to attend!

My journeys were as follows:

D533 1022 from Muenster to Hamburg Hbf hauled by 112311

Friday 17 March 1978:

E731 0747 Hamm to Muenster hauled by 110271

Notes:

At Diepholz the Bw was still in use.

The Bw at Kirchweyhe houses rail oil tanks.

At Rottenburg (Wummel) the Bw has been converted to a bus depot.

I stayed at the Jugendherberge at Horner Rennbahn.

The Bw at Bucholz (Nordheide) is still in use.

It was like a voyage of discovery where I had my first glimpse of the wonderfully awe-inspiring V200s. The magnificent buildings of the Hbf were amazing where the expresses of the DB passed through one after the other. Bw Altona was another amazing discovery, with its unique double turntable. Altona Hbf was being rebuilt at the time.
