A Look Back: Wiesbaden Hauptbahnhof

 This is part of a series over sites around Wiesbaden that Air Force/Army folks may have frequented in the 1970s, 1980s.  Today's topic?  The Wiesbaden Train Station or Haupbahnhof.

From the outside.....nothing much has changed other than glass bus-stops being added.  

On the interior?  McDonalds, KFC, Subway and Dunkin-Donuts are now part of the food offerings.  The newspaper shop did move from one side to another side. 

Bars to drink a brew?  There's just one place left in the station for that.

The Bahn shop to arrange travels?  Still there.  Machines to buy your tickets?  Still there.  But you can download an app and buy your local tickets or long-distance trips just as well.  

A safe place?  I'd generally say it's still 99-percent safe except for pick-pockets or doped-up folks in the evening hours.
