There is, of course, another municipal and community boundary across
the Vennbahn, somewhere near Monschau, dividing Waimes and Eupen. Any
ideas on its location? Perhaps the prologation of the border along
the N67/L214, so the spot near Monschau station where it crosses the
Vennbahn?

The two small boundary sections across the Vennbahn give four extra
bi-national tripoints, apart from the normal ones.
