Yes, their Metropolitain is even largely why we even call it "a metro" I think, as opposed to underground or subway.
Only the best metro service I’ve ever seen, never been to Japan or Germany, but a number of other large cities.
Germany and public transit. Name a more iconic duo.
DB is shit, expect delayed trains or being cancelled as being the norm. Several towns also (partially) use the DB rails for their suburban trains, which means that any delay on DB usually also has effects on their schedule.
Buses or a separate tramway from DB infrastructure can be fine, though.
Firefighters and EMS are the usual exception
That's good news but how the heck was the turnout only 4%? What kind of weird special election was that?
But muh avenue of rubies and diamonds!!
