The Trains That Did Not Stop

On 13 August 1961, when the Wall began to go up, three U-Bahn and S-Bahn lines kept running under East Berlin, and their trains passed the stations in the East without stopping. I tell the story of those ghost stations, of a U-Bahn driver who braked past guarded platforms, and of the tunnels people dug under the border. The stations reopened between November 1989 and March 1992, and Potsdamer Platz came last. Start at Nordbahnhof in Mitte, where an exhibition on those stations sits on the mezzanine above a platform the trains still stop at.
