Ornament at the place where the former Weesperpoortstation in Amsterdam was located. A sequence of rolling stock, approx. a meter high is - with the streetname - the only thing left. But the railway history continues, as underneath the street behind the ornament the subway station 'Weesperplein' lies. Photo taken by Ernst Berkhout (Ernst.Berkhout@Bigfoot.com) on July 22 1999.

The place where the former Weesperpoortstation in Amsterdam was located. It once was a terminus from the line from Utrecht. The station has since long been demolished, but the streetname 'Rhijnspoorplein' still remembers its railway history. Photo taken by Ernst Berkhout (Ernst.Berkhout@Bigfoot.com) on July 22 1999.
