What a great project!

Cost of construction: €700 million, took ten years to be completed. The Berlin Bahnhof has 1100 trains carrying around 30,000 passengers per day.

It is a great train station. It doesn't feel as congested as Hamburg or Cologne. Great to see Berlin becoming more and more vibrant, a fantastic city.
