A film with a short storyline showing how locomotives and carriages are handled at stations from the arrival of a D-train until its next departure. The son of a train driver, who has to write an essay at school entitled "What I saw at the station," learns about the technical facilities of the marshalling yard along with the viewers: coal loading, water extraction, slag removal, work in the locomotive shed, cleaning the boilers, and maintaining the passenger cars. From the arrival of a train at the platform to its departure, the focus is on operational safety, cleanliness, and passenger comfort.
Hinter den Kulissen des Bahnhofs was directed by Curt Wesse.
Hinter den Kulissen des Bahnhofs runs for 18min, and was released in 1937.
