A trip on the Drachenfels railway

Posted on 9 October 201722 December 2017 by Andrew Grantham

A trip on the Drachenfels narrow gauge rack railway near Bonn in Germany in September 2017. I was looking to have a go at filming something using a mobile phone, and this seemed a handy excuse.

Paddle ship Goethe

Posted on 9 September 20179 October 2017 by Andrew Grantham

Köln-Düsseldorfer Deutsche Rheinschiffahrt paddle ship ‘Goethe’ travelling through the Rhine Gorge on the Middle Rhine between Bingen and Oberwesel in September 2017. Short and long versions of the video, based on the same clips.

I actually prefered some of KD’s more modern ships, as they are better designed for viewing the scenery.
