    Interesting picture that took me down a bit of a rabbit hole, as I was wondering why it had “Türkischer Basar” or “Turkish Bazar” as the destination. Turns out that between 1980 and 1993, there was indeed a Turkish bazar inside the Bülowstraße station in Berlin, which had been closed as a regular station due to the separation from East Berlin.

      What do you mean “as a regular station”?

        I mean that there were no longer scheduled train services to and from the station. Just the occassional promotional ones for the bazar.
