Alongside S6 Munich

The following series is a “donation” from my dear colleague Karoline.

The story is a weird and strange one but I believe it is true as Karoline is not a person who makes things up.

So, here is the story:

she told me that she is doing here jogging exercise regularly alongside the S6. That is the urban railway No. 6 in Munich, reaching from south east (Ebersberg) through the center of the city and further to the south west (Tutzing at Starnberger See). Well, she is not running the whole track, but only part of it in the western side of the track. Don’t ask me why she is running alongside an urban railway track, that’s her secret.

Anyway, when she is jogging along the rail-trail there are benches popping up. That is to say that there are suddenly benches which have not been there the day before. And as you can see on the pictures, the benches do not appear to have just been there for a day, rather the opposite.

The series of benches you see here has been popping up over the last couple of months. The last one just a week ago. When Karo heard about the BenchMark blog she was so nice to take the camera on her next jogging round and took the pictures below.

I am curious when the next bench pops up.

I have to admit that the view when sitting on one of the benches (most likely you watch the urban rail track) has a bit a down side regarding the “what-is-a-good-bench” criteria. However, the look of the bench and the story compensates for that.
