    Wonderful pictures (though it’s discouraging to see the graffiti).

    Berlin is full of of graffiti, an inheritance to its anarchistic past. Quite a lot of it is actually sanctioned, and even maintained by the local government. Not sure about this one, though. But you will hardly see any graffiti on trains or busses, luckily.

      Graffiti is really ugly but the stations are absolutely gorgeous so I won’t let that put me off. Berlin shouldn’t be sanctioning graffiti though.

    If we define “Railway” as a specific type of public transportation route , then the very first railway in the World to operate on electric powr was in Berlin in 1881; this was the “Gross- Lichterfelde Tramway” which operated as a public transportation system.

    This first electric railway was engineered by Werner Von Siemens who utilized the tracks of a rail-line that originally had been laid for the transportation of construction materials. One rail was “Positive D. C.” and the other was “Negative D.C,”
