L37.7 (Thionville-Apach Frontière), seen very close to the French-German border.
Beyond those DB side-signs (blue-white), which warn against the voltage change-over (25kV 50Hz AC---> 15kV 16 2/3 Hz AC), one can already spot the very first DB catenary mast, beyond that level-crossing. Apach [Apach Frontière]. 25th May 2006.

L37.7 (Thionville-Apach Frontière), seen very close to the French-German border, looking towards Apach.
The very few Z6300 EMUs connecting Thionville with Apach actually reverse here. The French manual-block sign (BMU) looks rather outdated... Apach [Apach Frontière]. 25th May 2006.
