A train bearing the clearly legible lettering of MITROPA, the Central European Sleeping and Dining Car Company, rolls across a steel railway bridge spanning the Landwehrkanal in Berlin-Kreuzberg. At the same moment, a crowded excursion boat and a barge pass beneath the bridge, layering different modes of transport within a single frame. Founded in 1916, MITROPA operated dining and sleeping cars across the German railway network and was a familiar sight of travel during the Weimar Republic. The Landwehrkanal, built in the late 19th century to link the Spree and the lower Havel, served both freight traffic and the leisure outings of Berliners.
