Editorial (May 2022) - News

The train is coming. The special too

teasers

If I had gone a few days later, I could have saved 3.70, that doesn’t make the cabbage fat anymore either.

But in general: Driving through Germany for 9 euros? Excellent! Various newspapers and online magazines have tried to find out through surveys who is using the ticket and whether it has brought new passengers to public transport.
