U-Bahn and S-Bahn

Usually I don't collect postcards that I bought myself. I prefer to recieve them but I'm going to keep this one.Mainly because I got it from the most amazing European city- Berlin. Longer post about the city soon for now just a short note.


Metro- U-Bahn in Berlin was opened in 1902 and it consist of 10 lines and 173 stations. The length of the lines is 146,3 km and 4/5 of it is under the ground. S-bahn is a rapid transit system of 15 lines that crosses the city and the surrounding. It's integrated with U-Bahn.


From my short experience I can say that the public transport works fine in the city and it's easy to use and the only problem was that automats don't allow payment by Visa Electron card ;)
