Altrote Zeiten im Münsterland - Westfälische Eisenbahn-Impressionen 1967-1987

The sixties, seventies and eighties were a truly colourful era for the railways between Lippe, the Lower Rhine and the Teutoburg Forest. In addition to the "old red" of the diesel vehicles and battery-powered railcars, the black of the steam locomotives could still be found, and the modern traction was in blue, green or burgundy-beige.
On routes that have long since been closed, old or very modern-looking DB and private railway railcars still hummed and buzzed.

This book brings the years between 1967 and 1987 to life again. Around 130 color photographs show locomotives, railcars, routes and railway scenes that were quite commonplace at the time. To today's viewer, they seem like friendly greetings from a distant time.

Die Eisenbahn in Köln - Von den dreißiger Jahren bis heute

Cologne has always been considered the "hub of the west" for the railway. The railway service offered in the shadow of the venerable Cologne Cathedral is unrivalled!
Cologne has been one of the most outstanding railway hubs in Germany since the high-speed line between Cologne and Rhine/Main was opened in 2002. An incredibly diverse railway service was and is offered on both sides of the Rhine in a very small area. The city is the starting point for the legendary Rhine routes, the Eifel route, the first international long-distance route via Aachen to Belgium and much more.

From the "Rheingold" with the Bavarian S 3/6, the SVT operations of the "Flying Cologne", the IC/EC traffic with the series 103 and 101 to the ICE-3 operations, almost everything that railway operations have had since the 1930s is offered. Not to mention the hustle and bustle of local and regional transport as well as the S-Bahn operations.

The star-shaped routes leading to and from Cologne make the cathedral city what it has always been - a lively railway city!

Eisenbahnchronik Weserbergland - Die Geschichte der Eisenbahnen an der Oberweser

The railway history of the Weserbergland is both exciting and complicated. The territorial fragmentation in this area and the difficult topographical conditions did not offer good conditions for the construction of railways, but the desire of the large West German railway companies for supra-regional east-west connections resulted in a dense network of main lines here.

The division of Germany caused some of the long-distance routes to quickly become insignificant after the strong east-west freight traffic had largely disappeared almost overnight. The numerous branch and small railways in this region also soon came under increasing pressure due to the growing car traffic. Today, rail traffic in the Weserbergland is almost insignificant except for the main line Hanover - Altenbeken.

The book recalls the great era of the railway on the Upper Weser, of scenic branch lines and small railways and of the last steam locomotives that could be seen pulling heavy freight trains here until 1976.
