-in what has to be the greatest rail preservation rally of all time, an estimated 65,000 people turned out in the streets of Stuttgart, Germany to protest demolition of the landmark railroad station. Deutsche Bahn is tearing off the wings of the 1930's station to provide new through underground routes into downtown Stuttgart. Charges were made that the state government had poorly represented the interests of the people, and that Deutsche Bahn's "Project 21" would end up with massive cost overruns. There were demands that the modernization project be halted, and the demolished sections be rebuilt.
