We used to play here as children. We always called it the Twin Bridge.
I still remember how the rail bus ran here from Bergheim to Kerpen and Nörvenich.
I didn't experience any activity on the other route down towards Liblar.

The "Strategic Railway" from Neuss to Liblar, built in 1904, was originally intended to extend across the Moselle River to France. Today, only fragments of it remain, mostly visible as railway embankments in the landscape. Near Horrem, this distinctive double-arched bridge spans the road and the Kleine Erft river.
