Solingen Snapshots

Various views of trolleybuses in Solingen, including the turntable at Burg.

Views from Wohwinkel where the trolleybuses meet the Wüppertal Schwebebahn form their own film.

Videotaped over several visits in the early 1990's.

wow, that's amazing! I never knew that Solingen is so popular for visitors =0

Some correctives to your description: - It's not called Wohwinkel but Vohwinkel - And the city is not Wüppertal but Wuppertal ;-)

It's called Wuppertal because the city is around a dale (=Tal) where the river "Wupper" is flowing...

Greetings from Solingen!

Thanks. :-)

No umlaat in Wuppertal?

btw, its the trolleybuses which bring people to Solingen, and not (for instance) to Oberhausen, or any of the other nearby towns.

Nice turntable you've got there.

[citytransportinfo]

Thanks, but alas it will stop being used later this year, when articulated duo-buses are introduced on this bus route and services are extended further into Burg.

Wem diese Aussage nicht weiterhilft, dem kann man nicht mehr helfen:

Solingen war zwar früher sehr schön, ist aber bis auf die ganzen Baustellen zurzeit auch schön geblieben ^^

Und die Haltestelle in der Mitte vom Grafen find ich jetzt auch nicht gerade schlechter als wie es früher war

Solingen ist bestes x33

i wonder who ever thought an electric bus turntable was a good idea

[Solinger19]

The segment where the trolleys stop at the signal is excellent!
