Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / railway | | German term or phrase: Betriebsbahnhof | No further context available, but they do mention Betriebsbahnhof Schöneweide and Betriebsbahnhof Rummelsburg and if there's a name for it I need to use it.
Thanks for your help as usual! |
