Hamburg und die Eisenbahn 1964-1973
Hamburg, the largest city in the Federal Republic of Germany at the time, offered railway photographers a wide range of subjects with its diverse rail network.
The years 1964 to 1973 were a time of upheaval, especially in the transport sector. This period saw the electrification of the main lines leading from the south to Hamburg, the abandonment of steam locomotives and the reduction of tram operations in preparation for their complete closure. Nevertheless, during this transitional period, locomotives, carriages and trams of a wide variety of types, not seen today, were in daily use.
The Hamburg photographer Rainer Schnell has been documenting what is happening on Hamburg's railway tracks since he was 14 years old. The urban environment through which the tracks run was not neglected either.
This book shows a selection of the best photos, enriched by many descriptions and some personal experiences related to the railway.
