Train station clocks in Germany used to be absolutely fascinating
they just ticked on for 58 seconds and did a controlled jump to 0
kicked of via landline by the central clock in Frankfurt.

Times gone by: when trains tended to have delays in the dozend second domain.
( And my father got irate when his trains trespassed on the 60 second boundary.)

Lets meet in Braunschweig ( the master clock has long ago been moved from Frankfurt
to the PTB in Braunschweig.)
