A sad sight - disused railways
A link to many record photos of disused railway tracks/buildings/bahnbetriebswerk etc.... of sites in Germany, France, Belgium, Holland, Estonia, etc.... (Even Wuppertal for David)

Loved it. That sort of urban decay is so hard to model though, especially at the extreme. Bucolic alpine huts are much easier.
Thanks, p.
Does DB have any long term plans to "clean up" the disused yards etc? My observation is that there's a small fortune in scrap steel an copper wire, and at the moment prices for scrap metal are through the roof.
On the other hand, with the price of oil heading up in the long term, a lot of those disused facilities might be required. At least we can hope....
