The new S-Bahn (suburban railway) stop Köln-Weiden West on the western edge
of Cologne (located on the
upgraded
line Cologne-Düren) seen from the south side on 28 May 2006, the day it
was taken into service. The station was more or less finished on that day,
except for the elevator (located between the staircases) which looked finished
but was not yet operational. The yellow signs at the bottom of the staircases
indicate that this is a non-smoking station. Note that the stairs are very wide,
as heavy traffic to the soccer stadium is to be expected sometimes.
