Farewell to Paris-Munich conventional daytime services (Ultimate day!!!):
Class 181.2 of DB-FV, seen heading the very last EC 64 ever (München Hbf ---> Paris Est), shortly after entering the Rhine Bridge, which marks the border between Kehl (Germany) and Strasburg (France).
At this stage, the rear pantograph (25kV-50Hz AC) is up, as this front end of this formation has already passed the voltage change-over...
Pont du Rhin-Rheinbruck (Kehl Grenze).
9th June 2007.
