Berlin Stadtbahn Viaduct Construction - Basic Segmets

This one is huuuge: a bigger modular project with easy segments adding. The plan was to build a whole system within minutes; just like a model train set. I think, I'm on a good way. Stadtbahn Berlin Construction Basic Set BETA HISTORY The Berlin Stadtbahn is a four track rail line only for passenger service mostly build on viaduct arches crossing grade free Berlins central districts from east to west (or the other direction^^). Northern two tracks for local service, south for regional and long-distance (like Paris-Moscow). The 11. 2 km long viaduct opened in 1882 with 731 arches built, in 597 of this arches soon followed a commercial use: from grocerys, restaurants over storages, horse stalls (later car repairs) to cultural usages like theatres and museums it has even an animal shelter. Today 456 arches are still existing, all of them with preservation order. Not only the viaduct works fine, some of the shops from the beginning years are still existing ever since. During the Berlin Wall (1961 to 1989) all of the S-Bahn tracks connecting Berlin(West) were cut, services were run seperately in both systems; except one S-Bahn line from west over on this central viaduct. And only people from the west were allowed to the border crossing Station Berlin-Friedrichstraße, where as well East German and West Berlin trains ended. And a big border checkpoint inside the station existet. Though the S-Bahn-service in Berlin (West) was still being operated by the East German Reichsbahn till 1980, it was run from 1984 till reunifiction shortly by the Berlin(West) BVG. The local tracks on the viaduct got the third rail electrification in 1928, the catenary electrifiaction of the long-distance tracks followed with a restauration of the viaduct from 1993 to 1998. Since 30 years now usually all trains are running through east to west again. The DB besides some others like LOCOMORE or ODEG runs service. Now the over 1100 trains each day make a nice train noise atmosphere in my deam living r
