Pillar railway

The rear part of the layout shows the pillar railway and the main freight station. The Pillar Railway has undergone major changes over the years: it no longer exists - it has been replaced by a much shorter viaduct. The main freight station also no longer exists in this form.

At the flag stop 'Elbbrücke' travellers wait for the next trains to Harburg or to the main station. The platform was not rebuilt after the war.
