Hamburg und seine Straßenbahn: Hermann Hoyer - eine Zeitreise in die Vergangenheit

Hermann Hoyer was one of the first railway enthusiasts. However, unlike most hobby railway enthusiasts, he did not focus on locomotives, but on trams and passenger carriages. For a long time he was the consultant par excellence for many model railway manufacturers when new carriage models were to be manufactured.
The real treasures, however, are his Hamburg tram photos - taken in the 1950s to 1970s: lively street scenes that captivate the viewer and instantly transport them back to the past.

Stefan Carstens has compiled a book from this unique collection about the economic miracle in Hamburg, which is not only aimed at tram enthusiasts, but above all at everyone who, like him, grew up in post-war Hamburg or who wants to know what their surroundings looked like back then - many of the sites from the past can still be found today.
Let us take you on this journey through time.

Unterwegs mit Bimmel, Rumpel und Elektrischer - Deutschlands Strassenbahnen der 50er, 60er und 70er Jahre

Post-war Germany during the economic miracle was simply unimaginable without the tram. It was as much a part of the cityscape as advertising columns or traffic police, and was also a status symbol for a city and reliably transported people everywhere. Nevertheless, it was precisely during this period that many trams were discontinued.

Mit Zicke, Silberpfeil und Sambazug - Deutsch-Deutsche Strassenbahngeschichte

It was once as much a part of the cityscape as advertising columns, newspaper boys or traffic police - the tram squeaked and rang its bell through the streets, annoyed the beer cart drivers and passers-by and yet was indispensable for everyone.
Whether to school, church or work: the tram went there, slowly but reliably and often.

Today the tram is disappearing more and more from the cityscape, modern light rail systems or even subways have overtaken it - but in this color picture book by Jürgen Krantz it lives once again, the magic of the tram.
