Wheels are slightly damaged



As we already wrote in this Blog, there are some severe problems with the theatre wagon. Actually, the wheels are slightly damaged - hardly visible to any normal person - but severe enough to loose any right of traveling. At least in Germany. The problem's now that it's not even allowed to pull the wagon 10 km to the reparation center as it lost it's international licence and without the latter, any traveling on official railway tracks is strictly forbidden.
Yes, in this case we are confronted with an interesting side of bureaucracy: You're obliged to undertake a reperation but not allowed to bring the wagon to a reperation center.

In the end, it's not that complicated. Yesterday, two metalworkers of German Railways prepared the wheels provisorically. Now it should be at least permitted to drive short distances at very low speed.
