Up the Brocken Mountain
The Brocken Mountain stands at 3700ft (1100m) high, the highest peak in Northern Germany with a Soviet era radio on top, a totally inaccessible place before re-unification. The branch from Drei Annen Hohne corkscrews its way to the top. Down trains pull into a layby siding to let the up trains pass without breaking their stride.
