I'm planning to make a stopover at the Haldensleben depot on 21.08.2008. Where can I find the depot? (I have examined satelite photos and I think the depot is around 52°17'23.74"N 11°23'40.35"E) Is it possible to get in and make some photos? (legally, of course)
Thanks, Mopi (Lazlo Kiraly), NOHAB-GM foundation, Budapest
you are right with the Position of the Depot! It is north of the station at the "Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Allee" (if you will use a navigation system).
I think, it will be no problem to take pictures there.
But please note some rules:
- at first contact the office and ask for permission - wear a safety vest when you cross the tracks - please do not publish pictures from inside the halls, it is forbidden!
If you are lucky, the new painting of 1151 will be finished on August, 21th!
Regards, Frank
P.S. Best wishes to M61 010 from the German NOHAB-Fans!!!
