KVB line 5: Gutenbergstraße to Ossendorf

Front window view out of a 2100 series LRV on KVB's line 5 travelling to the old Ossendorf terminal. Thanks to YouTube's new length limitation, now in one part.

And, something else has changed: By now, the Ossendorf branch has been closed for a complete renovation and an extension of about one kilometer and three new stops to the Butzweilerhof industrial area. Proposed date of re-opening is December 12th, 2010. (So, in fact, it will likely be like March of 2065. ;-) ) Until then shuttle buses run between Nussbaumer Str., Ossendorf and the future terminal. Ossendorf station will not be reopened though, the trains will run by it. Bus transfer was said to be moved to the Rektor-Klein-Str. station, but wasn't in fact.

If you would like recordings from a certain location in the Cologne transit network, leave a comment/message/whatever please, and I'll see what I can do.
