skirmfirm Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 re-berlin found our hotel on google earth, and luckily, theres a huge yard just down the road with the yellow (ubahn?) trains in it. This circle line you were on about, is that the one with the red train? from what ive earthed, it looks like were right next to the south of that line. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skirmfirm Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 generaly, as people go on them the term 'commuter' is a person who 'commutes' (travels) to work in the city or town, from outside, maybe from the burbs, so therefore cars coming into the city in the morning are generaly commuters, same with bikes, or buses, and generaly trains are thought of as means to get to work, therefore commuters, although we dont have a tube/subway so im not the one to ask on that, there usually just called subway trains, as you dont get freights in the subway so dont need to define the difference.

The trains that go up and down the country are intercity trains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
