Here you can see a typical Berlin S-Bahn (urban train) at a typical Berlin
 S-Bahn-stop (Bellevue).  The train is made in 1927 -- in western Berlin
 these were the usual trains (that's because the GDR operated even the rails
 in western Berlin until the 80ies -- then they sold the S-Bahn and their
 oldest cars.)  Last year (1995) there were some of these trains left.
<P>
Today you'll find mostly different types of modern trains and some
 constructed in 1936.

This picture was taken im summer 1989.  Because of the wall there was less
 traffic -- nowadays the platforms are much more crowded.
