Thanks,

Yes, x....those links are great! I had never seen some of those interior photos before...my goodness, looking at that desk, one would say old Herr Göring sure had a taste for the ornate ornamentation (some would say "gaudy", perhaps?), didn't he?

Goring's trains :D

Thanks for the pictures guys. Most helpful. Does anyone know what happen to the Göring's trains. Did he take them with him when he blew the Karinhall up?

Thanks,
Joel
