A rare daylight freight train on the ICE-train line between Wurzburg and Hanover  Contributor's Pick!       
Exiting the north portal of the Weltkugel Tunnel, which is 1641 meters long. This was early morning. Deutschbahn runs Gütezugs, or "Goods trains" on this line during the wee hours of the night, when passenger trains aren't running. The gradient is favorable, and the goods trains operate as fast as they can manage.
