A dense crowd in period clothing – hats, coats, suits – descends the stairs of a Berlin Stadtbahn station during the morning rush hour, heading for the exit. Directional signs reading 'Rechts gehen' (keep right) and 'Fahrkarten bereit halten' (have tickets ready) guided the flow of pedestrians on the capital's busy underground and urban rail stations. Such crowd scenes underscored the newsreel's characteristic view of the pace and density of a modern metropolis on the eve of the Weimar Republic's end.
