    • Fragility and Persistence: The image captures a moment of extreme tension between human engineering and natural forces. It echoes the "frozen clocks" by showing a system at its absolute limit, where the "normal" functions of a crossing—waiting for a train, driving across—have been rendered impossible or surreal by the disaster.

      Ultimately, the Frankfurt crossing is a metaphor for a world where the structures we rely on are becoming increasingly isolated, forced to operate on "islands" of safety as the environmental landscape shifts around them,

        It's like that scene from Miyazaki's "Spirited away". Wonderful.
