    A former train stop became the Vennbahn's most representative building. When the Malmedy-Montjoie section was inaugurated, Sourbrodt had only one stop. The first houses were about a kilometre from this stop. But it didn't stop there. In 1889, a new station was built in Sourbrodt, four years after the first Vennbahn train stopped there. It was to become a jewel of the time. Today, the bricks above the doors and windows and the stucco decorations on the upper part of the gable are reminders of the once magnificent building.

      these old locomotive turning systems are simply awesome!

        Actually, this highlight is pretty sad; one stands in Sourbrodt, sees the old locomotive and the decaying signal box and realizes that the whole place looks very similar;
        Abandoned, decaying, death.
