2013 Euro Trip - Sarf East Convoy

[cslsuperfan]

I did a diversion last year to The Bridge at Remagan near Cologne only to remember when I got there, they blew it up in the war. (and never rebuilt it) didn't take many photos.

If you do go to Edersee make sure you don't big it up, as 1600 locals and labourers died after the bombing.

priceless!!:-D

Tempted by a diversion to the Eder dam on the way, one of the Dambusters targets. 70th year anniversary last week.

Apparently it's : "truly magnificent. This behemoth is the stuff of Prussian knights on plumed chargers, it is a thrillingly romantic design. A medieval schloss overlooks it. There are lovely walks, echoing with busy woodpeckers, along the lake".

Maybe not an excursion for the Munich based members....

Not even looked at the Walkie talkies yet but will do soon and post the channel.

We're driving from Rotterdam in the morning, so going via Stuttgart rather than Nuremberg might be good as we might see some CSL's along the way :beer:

...assuming the majority taking the tunnel are going that way....

Is there an agreed radio channel ?

[Bealo]
