new here I start posting a picture from the Friedrichshafen Lake Station at night (Maerklin) ... gauge 0

whats very interesting about this item:

This Station is a model of the real building still there (rebuilt after WWII), now a Zeppelin Museum inside

Its Style / Design is Bauhaus.

Which is intersting too, that this kind of style was available in the prewar catalogue of Maerklin in the time of the Third Reich.

You have to know that the Nazis hated and prohibited the Bauhaus for its modern design.

Hi folks

This is a Terminus Station for trains for interchange to ship connections for passengers.

The Short branCh line fromm frh Main Station to Port Station = here on the upper end of the Complex, is still in Service by deutsche Bahn. 

Years ago the interchange of railroad freight cars here on  fairies to Switzerland was abandoned.

The Museum consists of relics of original Zeppelins beside others of the crashed Hindenburg air ship.

Not a whole ship in fact since therefore there is Not enough Space.
