    One of the most impressive things about German cities and Berlin is no exception to this, is the…read moreefficient and plentiful provision of public transport options Berlin is criss-crossed by well signposted and organised Deutsche Bahn railway trains, U-Bahn subway trains, S-Bahn psuedo-subway trains, trams and buses. These run reliably, are clean and run on an integrated ticketing zonal fare system. You can buy tickets for journeys within or across the fare zones (A to C), either for single journeys or as a daily travel cards and these cover all modes of transport. Just remember to validate your tickets for travel at the little validation machines on the platform The next most impressive thing about German public transport is the honesty of the travelling public. I was surprised and then shocked to find that you can just stroll onto the train platforms with passing any ticket barriersand watching travellers, people do pay for tickets. Perhaps to London's shame, I'm fairly sure that if there were no ticket barriers, a significant number of passengers would abuse the system. Some already try to do so despite the presence of ticket barriers Ostkreuz is a major interchange for a lot of S-Bahn services located in the eastern end of town. It provides another way to get to Berlin Schoenefeld Airport via the S9 line. You just need to locate the correct platform from which your service is departing and the departure boards are quite clear There are a few eateries but no toilet (I had to hold it a little til I got to the airport!). There are customer service agents with red hats to help customers but they weren't particularly helpful with regard to toilet facilities! Despite this, the station was a model of German efficiency - who needs the private sector to suck out last amounts of taxpayers' subsidy if the public sector can run such an efficient transport system?

    Folks unfamiliar with the German transport system probably fall in love with it instantly. Trains…read morerun on time, busses are considerably clean, trams are modern, and subways are a vital part of every big city. This is especially true for Berlin. Public transport gets you anywhere. At Bahnhof Ostkreuz ("East cross") all the city trains (S-Bahn) come together. It is one of four major stations (Suedkreuz, Gesundbrunnen, Hauptbahnhof) and it has been re-constructed for years. It now has a full-size roof which protects you from wind and rain, some food options, and large escalators that connect the North/South-bound and the East/West-bound platforms. I remember the good old days in the 1980's when Ostkreuz was one of the bigger transit hubs in East Berlin, with the best currywurst outside the station. Now I believe there's a Doner Kebab place, among plenty of food and drink options in the neighborhood.

    This is the main train station in Berlin. WIFI is free and available. There are plenty of shops to…read moreoccupy your time upon arrival. This train station is not heated, if you are here in the winter come dressed. But the shops all have heat, so you can pop into a store to warm up if needed. But the tracks are not heated, so be prepared. All tracks are marked so look for your track. Once you find your track, check the board to see what car your reserved seat is located so that you can line up as closely to your car as possible. Line by quickly and make your way onto the train as quickly as possible to get your seat, get your luggage parked, because the train will go whether you are in your seat or not. Then Make sure that you have your ticket ready to show the ticket checkers on board the train. They don't check every leg, but be prepared to have either a paper ticket or the app on your phone ready to show the ticket checker. I highly Recommend to reserve your seat if you don't want to bother looking for a seat when you board. When you buy your tickets, they will tell you the demand rate. If the demand is low, you might be okay without reserving your seat. There are toilets on board if needed. Food is available to purchase in the food train. NOTE: Trains don't run on time, each leg was between 10 -15 minutes late. NOTE: by your tickets online or download the app to purchase ticket before you arrive to the station to save money. The day of tickets are double to triple the price if you book a few days ahead.

There are many food and dining options, various retail stores, everything imaginable. It's fairly easy to navigate. Free Wi-Fi available. If you're from the United States and you're catching an Uber, be prepared to move fast to get your Uber. Don't order an Uber assuming there will be a typical delay of two or three minutes like in the United States. We had to pay our Uber driver a small waiting fee because of the time it took us to get from the door of the train station to the Uber.
