Lorries and a bus on the Reichsautobahn, 1937

On a broad, almost empty concrete carriageway edged by a white railing, with power lines and a pylon beyond and a line of woods on the horizon, a covered lorry comes towards the camera, then a streamlined coach, then a heavy tanker lorry towing a second tank on a trailer. Heavy goods traffic was what the new roads were meant to carry; in 1937 private cars on them were still few.
