And again, a place in the Ruhr area that you just have to see. The small detour is worthwhile.

Remnant of a short former rail connection between the Phoenix steel plant and the waste deposit area Hympendahl across the valley used since the 1860s, with this viaduct completed in 1899. Long since collapsed, it is planned to install a viewing platform and reconnect both sides. ruhrgebiet-industriekultur.de/phoenix-west.html

Remains of a bridge of the former slag train from the blast furnace Phoenix to the dump bush mill. The actual bridge is no longer preserved, but the still standing bridgehead give the place but a special "industrial-ruins-romance" and are also accessible as viewing platforms.
