Just travelled from Dusseldorf to Koblenz and was shocked at the great lengths of metal panel walls being installed along the route.
DB seems intent on blocking all views of the line from urban areas, some walls being as high as a double deck train nd creating what must be very dismal dark gardens for those who border the track.
Not sure why this is being rolled out wholesale in some places whilst other locations remain completely unfenced.
I saw silly examples of this in Portugal too, by isolated houses next to the line in rural areas
Why? It'll make journeys very boring for passengers.
