The eastern end of the LGV 3 (new high-speed line between Aachen and
Liège) south of Hergenrath, seen from the west side on 11 May 2008. The
old line is on the left. The junction far in the background is hard to see, but
the red handrails of the Hammerbrücke behind it can be spotted between the
signals at the old line and the tree. On the other side of the tree, a part of
the voltage changeover from 25 kV 50 Hz (new line) to 3 kV DC is
visible.
