<p>Where the Danube has forcefully carved its way through the Jurassic rock, the monastery sits as if on a peninsula within the narrow river bend.<br />
The backdrop of the Danube Gorge is spectacular. The Weltenburg Narrows rise vertically here to a height of up to 100 meters.</p>

<p>En route vers de nouvelles aventures!<br />
<br />
La Bergehalde Beckstraße a été construite sur un site de 33 hectares qui était autrefois utilisé pour l'agriculture par la mine Prosper II. Cependant, ce n'est pas le terril qui est connu nationalement - et ce n'est pas le terril qui donne son nom au public - mais l'œuvre d'art qui l'orne depuis l'International Building Exhibition (IBA) Emscher Park : le tétraèdre, un construction qui repose sur quatre piliers en béton de neuf mètres de haut chacun et qui semble donc flotter.<br />
L'impressionnant tas de l'ancienne houillère Prosper sur la Beckstrasse à Bottrop est l'un des monuments les plus importants de la région. Cela est principalement dû à l'impressionnante mise en scène du charbon et de l'acier qui domine le sommet de la montagne de la table artificielle depuis 1995 : "l'événement du tas d'Emscherblick", plus connu sous le nom de Tétraèdre, une pyramide d'acier de 60 mètres de haut encastrée dans un immense champ de stériles, le matériau à partir duquel le terril a été créé entre 1963 et 1980. Visible de loin, le tétraèdre a longtemps été un repère non seulement de la ville mais de toute la région. Une œuvre d'art de plain-pied, créée par Wolfgang Christ pour l'exposition internationale du bâtiment (IBA) Emscher Park, avec trois plates-formes d'observation suspendues.<br />
Par temps clair, les visiteurs sont récompensés par une vue jusqu'à Duisburg. Dans les environs immédiats se trouvent l'Alpincenter Bottrop sur le terril Prosperstraße, les fosses de la mine Prosper II, une cokerie, la suite Arenberg des projets IBA, le jardin de Welheim, la station d'épuration de Bottrop et, bien sûr, le jumeau Prosper tas. La vue sur le paysage urbain de la région de la Ruhr est également impressionnante. La montée au tas se fait soit par les 350 marches d'un escalier, soit par des sentiers sinueux.<br />
<br />
Onward to new adventures!<br />
<br />
The Bergehalde Beckstraße was built on a 33-hectare site formerly used for agriculture by the Prosper II mine. However, it is not the spoil heap itself that is nationally known—and it is not the spoil heap that lends its name to the public—but rather the artwork that has adorned it since the International Building Exhibition (IBA) Emscher Park: the tetrahedron, a structure resting on four concrete pillars, each nine meters high, and thus appearing to float. The impressive heap of the former Prosper coal mine on Beckstraße in Bottrop is one of the region's most important landmarks. This is primarily due to the impressive display of coal and steel that has dominated the summit of the artificial table mountain since 1995: the "Emscherblick Heap Event," better known as the Tetrahedron, a 60-meter-high steel pyramid embedded in a vast wasteland field—the very material from which the spoil heap was created between 1963 and 1980. Visible from afar, the Tetrahedron has long been a landmark not only for the town but for the entire region. A ground-level work of art, created by Wolfgang Christ for the International Building Exhibition (IBA) Emscher Park, it features three suspended observation platforms. On a clear day, visitors are rewarded with a view stretching as far as Duisburg. In the immediate vicinity are the Alpincenter Bottrop on the Prosperstraße spoil heap, the Prosper II mine shafts, a coking plant, the Arenberg suite of the IBA projects, the Welheim Garden, the Bottrop wastewater treatment plant, and, of course, the twin Prosper spoil heap. The view over the Ruhr region's urban landscape is also impressive. The ascent to the spoil heap can be made either via the 350 steps of a staircase or along winding paths.</p>

<p>15.44: Crossrail leased 185 535-2 (D-XRAIL) passes underneath the roadbridge from Weil am Rhein RBf’s South to North Yards with an intermodal from Switzerland for Germany.<br />
<br />
185 535-2 was built by Bombardier at Kassel Works.<br />
<br />
It was delivered to leasing company Angel Trains Cargo NV/SA, Antwerpen [B] (now Alpha Trains) on 17/09/2004 (Works No. 33677).<br />
<br />
185 535-2 is authorised for Germany, Austria and Switzerland (D/A/CH) – very useful for multi-country freight services.<br />
<br />
On delivery, it was spot hired at first to A.D.E. Eisenbahnverkehrsunternehmen and TXL Logistic.<br />
<br />
185 535-2 was then leased in either 2005 or 2006 to BLS Cargo [CH].<br />
<br />
With the arrival of the similar BLS Class 485s, it changed leaseholders to Crossrail AG [CH].<br />
<br />
On 20/08/2019, 185 535-2 was leased to WRS Deutschland GmbH, Karlsruhe [D].<br />
<br />
While there is a note stating this lease finished on 30/06/2021, recent photos on elektrolokarchiv.de still show WRS.<br />
<br />
Its last noted full overhaul was 2018 at DB’s AW Dessau (8 REV 28/02/2018). <br />
<br />
That overhaul would now have expired even with 2 annual Verl. extensions.<br />
<br />
So it is probably already overhauled again/ undergoing overhaul (though as at November 2026, I haven’t found a 2026 photo of it on Flickr yet).</p>
