In August 2001, I was sent to Germany on a business trip by my employer. I had posted on the discussion forum on 1000steine.de: “any German LEGO fans want to meet me?”. I ended up visiting Holger Matthes at his home in Mönchengladbach. For the whole trip report, see my travel blog, Roaming Bill. Here we talk just about the LEGO.

Pedestrian Bridge
Unlike the rest of my models, this was not built using my own LEGO collection. During a trip to Germany in August 2001, I visited with some German LEGO fans at the home of Holger “HoMa” Matthes in M�nchengladbach, and we built some accessories for their train layout. I built this pedestrian bridge.
