This here is my part of the theme. I shot this pics some days ago as specials for this content. This special place here was once Berlin`s biggest railroad stations for freight trains. Nearly 200 trains came in and got out per day..... Once: That means before World War II.
After World War II all trains in Berlin, even them in West- Berlin, were controlled by the Russians and the east german "Reichsbahn", and they closed the yard, because it was situated in West - Berlin..... Plants began to grow and now the biggest freight yard in the city is covered with a 50 years old wood.......
The railroad station is now a park and part of a system of green areas in Berlin. A group of artists use it for sculptures and events.
Hope you enjoy it!
