Frozen Rhine and travel chaos from long-ago winter
Reprint recalls a harsh winter fifty years ago with the Rhine frozen from Mayence to Cologne. Wagons crossed the ice and boat bridges only rose by March. A tale of ice, trains, and a buffalo on the track reflects the era's transport struggles and local curiosities.
