    She has not revealed how old she is. The oldest plan showing turntables in this area is from 1955, but maybe it was installed much earlier, who knows? The manufacturer is also not known, the Braunschweig company Heinrich Büssing would be conceivable, but that is only a guess. The good piece measures about 7 m in diameter, and was therefore also suitable for newer, but maximum two-axle freight cars. It was moved with muscle power by inserting a wooden pole into the side and using it to push it.
