The freight station Köln Eifeltor in the south of Cologne, seen from the 17th floor of the TausendFenster-Turm on 18 January 2005. At the northern end (foreground) is the electromechanical signalbox Enf, next to it a blue diesel loco of the Mittelweserbahn (MWB) is visible. In the background the line passes under the A 4 motorway, behind that is the container station which is very hard to see in the picture. Out of the picture the line proceeds to Hürth-Kalscheuren, where it branches to Koblenz (left Rhine line) and Trier (Eifel line).
