    The old train track 'The Iron Rhine' with some fallen trees here and there.

    Translated by Google •

      From Wikipedia:
      The Iron Rhine is a railway line that runs from the port of Duisburg to the port of Antwerp via Mönchengladbach and Roermond. Until cross-border freight traffic on the section between Dalheim and Roermond was discontinued in 1992, it was the shortest rail connection from the Ruhr area to the Belgian seaports and is 60 kilometers shorter than the connection via the Montzen route between Aachen West and Tongern.[4] Often the term Iron Rhine only refers to the railway line from Rheydt main station to Antwerp, as the overall connection includes parts of the previously built Aachen–Mönchengladbach and Duisburg-Ruhrort–Mönchengladbach lines as well as the Mönchengladbach freight bypass railway.
