Before we get to the coordinates, here's what might be a nice twist to [[Revisited|pictures of things revisited.]] To have the following pictures count in the revisited category, we would have to use not a geocentric system of coords, but a train-centric system. This would completely mess with the idea of geohashing, but I'll explain anyway: | Before we get to the coordinates, here's what might be a nice twist to [[Revisited|pictures of things revisited.]] To have the following pictures count in the revisited category, we would have to use not a geocentric system of coords, but a train-centric system.

Location
W of München, S of Mammendorf, close to the village of Egg. Easily accessible (train, then walk).
Participants
Plans
Time to 1-up the score for München's graticule!
Y'all, I might be interested in checking out this Sunday's location in München's West, almost revisiting 2009-04-24 48 11 and 2009-04-03 48 11. S-Bahn or RB from München (or RB from Augsburg and beyond) to Mammendorf, then walk. Not sure about the time yet, no other plans for the day (Sundays are awesome!). I could adjust to others' plans, if anyone else wants to go. --Zb 11:45, 20 February 2010 (UTC)--Zb 11:37, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Tryin' to make it for sunrise. --Zb 03:23, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Narrative
Zb left the house at 5 am by bike for München's main station, went by train to Mammendorf, arrived at the geohash at 7:09 just before sunrise, stayed for a bit and then went trainspotting during a long walk via Mammendorf and Haspelmoor to Althegnenberg, from where he took the train back to München, arriving home at 12:15 pm. It was beautiful.
Photos
Plenty more yet to come...
Early Trains to Mammendorf.
Before we get to the coordinates, here's what might be a nice twist to pictures of things revisited. To have the following pictures count in the revisited category, we would have to use not a geocentric system of coords, but a train-centric system. This would completely mess with the idea of geohashing, but I'll explain anyway:
But if we free our minds from the constraints of this common definition, we could argue that the Earth has moved below the train -- or rather: Is moving along the train at the moment these pictures were taken. Whoot: These are train-centric Revisited shots! Cool, innit?
Do not fear. I won't really tag the pictures with the Revisited category.
