A former #trainTrack in #Bremerhaven for #TrainTrackTuesday.

The UFO-like structure in the background is the #Klimahaus climate museum. The green structure in the foreground is one of two bascule bridges in the Old Harbour area – as you can see, this one was originally built as a railway crossing. The smaller building on the right is the powerhouse. Today, both bridges serve as a gateway to the #Havenwelten sights.

The railway wagon on the tracks is an old goods wagon, once used for transporting harbour cargo. It now stands as a reminder of the harbour's history and serves as a meeting point for walking tours.

I am struck, again, by how stupidly the #Alto #HSR project in #Canada is being built.

If you want to get every #province competing to (re)build a national #rail service, build #trains from #Vancouver #BC through #Calgary to #Edmonton #AB, with the stipulation it can only be powered with #Renewable #electricity.

All the mistakes/learning happen in the west. Everyone gets #railroad envy. Everything gets cheaper as it gets closer to #Ottawa.

And your party is heroes. Unlike the #LCPC.
