L37.7 (Thionville-Apach Frontière), seen very close to the French-German border.

At this stage, the line still runs in France, but side-signs are unambiguous about the border nearby:

• Top: DB signs, warning against the forthcoming voltage change-over (25kV 50Hz AC---> 15kV 16 2/3 Hz AC);
• Bottom: SNCF sign "Signalisation DB", warning against the immediate rule-book/signalling change-over (SNCF/RFF---> DB Netz).

Apach [Apach Frontière].
