Rhine, wine and blue trains - the railway in Mainz in the 1950s will perhaps make railway fans from metropolises such as Hamburg, Frankfurt, Cologne or Munich smile. But operations in the Gutenberg city were remarkably varied at the time: French long-distance railcars, the occasional US diesel locomotive, Prussian T 3, T 12 and G 8.1, blue 03.10, blue F trains and the Rheinblitz group, 23, V 200, later battery-powered railcars, VT 11.5 and from 1962 the new cobalt blue and beige Rheingold with E 10.12 and observation car. The rolling wine cellar next to WL sleeping cars, Italian, Belgian and other international carriages.
The cover story of the summer issue of EisenbahnKLASSIK takes a visually rich foray into Mainz Central Station during the period of reconstruction and the economic miracle.

Railway CLASSIC History - Culture - Photography Where do railway enthusiasts feel at home? Certainly not between barren noise barriers and overgrown tracks of a railway that stops running because there are leaves on the track or a switch is frozen. If they could, many railway enthusiasts would turn back time. EisenbahnKLASSIK turns along and makes a big promise to its readers: more classic railways, more information from the great times of rail transport than any other magazine. EisenbahnKLASSIK sees itself as an innovative magazine. Its content focuses on the history, photography and culture of 20th century German railways, but also includes information on today's operators of nostalgia and museum railways as well as other "preservers" of historical relics of rail transport. Expert reports are flanked by great reportages about being on the road with the railway and by fine, often small stories about unique, irretrievable moments. Feuilletonistic reflections and declarations of love for vanished (or future) railway worlds round off the spectrum. An integral part of EisenbahnKLASSIK are emotional, epochal images of outstanding quality, unique documents and archive finds and a clear, timeless layout.
