At the German border station all passengers had to leave the international train and change to a small Dutch electric unit. The Germans did not want to let their trains out of their country, because they were afraid they would not get it back. Dutch railway workers had threatened with a strike. |

In the morning I had taken my bike by train to the Teutoburger Forest. There I biked through the wooded hills. In the afternoon I travelled by local trains back to the border. I ended at Gronau, but the railway service from there over the border to Dutch Enschede had long been suspended due to lack of travellers, as many other border crossings of only local importance. There was a bus service, but my bike was faster. |

Lille always was a very attractive place for me, as I like towns close to borders. It seems far, as located in France, but it is close, 200 kilometers from Holland, just over the border between Belgium and France. It had changed its identity: once it had been Flemish, but now it was unmistakably French. It has an interesting art museum and recently a Museum for Modern Art had opened. The trip was so easy that I forgot any details, except sitting almost alone in a Belgian train and looking at the rolling landscape west of Brussels. |
