Arrow ARCHIVE: Duisburg parcel depot April 08 - 16-02-2009, 07:12

Noticed this place (it was difficult not to) while on training in Duisburg.
Thanks to hickhack for the background.
Duisburg DB Partiefracht closed around 1999 when their outsourcing parcel service was no longer required.
The depot although part demolished was truely massive with as much floor space below ground as above. Unfortunately I dident have a torch or tripod with me for a full explore.

Entrance road.




























You were supposed to blow the bloody doors off










The last thing I expected to see was a grand piano!
