Transit Tangents
Transit Tour - Munich, Germany
We ride around Munich from the city center to the suburban palaces. We hit it all, trams, buses, U-Bahn and S-Bahn. Home of BMW, our trip reveals a car capital where transit is still king.
• Major renovations and expansion of the Munich Hauptbahnhof and what it changes
• tram frequency, speed differences versus Vienna, and signage wins
• walkability around Marienplatz and Viktualienmarkt
• cross-town bus to BMW and Olympic Park to test outer links
• U-Bahn service levels, proof-of-payment, and crowd management
• S-Bahn scale today and why a new tunnel under construction matters
• Munich’s centralized rail versus Vienna’s stronger orbitals

This week is part two of our European series featuring Munich. Join us as we traverse the city and learn about Munich's buses, U Bahn, S-Bahn, trams, and a whole lot more. How does it stack up compared to Vienna? Find out this week on Transit Tangents. We are in Munich. We made it uh yesterday. We took a train from Vienna. Took about four hours to get here. Pretty smooth journey overall. Yeah, not bad at all. And today we're gonna be doing Munich using only public transit. So this is episode two of our kind of trek across from Vienna to Munich to Zurich. And I'm really looking forward to it. We got in a little early yesterday, so we had a chance to kind of check things out a little bit. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Go grab some drinks and dinner and uh get to see a little bit of the city. But uh this morning, because our hotel is really close to here, we are starting at the central station. You can see all the trains behind us. Uh, and we are going to uh again start from here, kind of move toward the city center, and then check out some of the things uh in Munich, getting there using only public transit.
SPEAKER_01:Absolutely, and this station is absolutely massive. It is one of the busiest train stations in Germany, uh, and it's also undergoing a massive reconstruction project. So there are five key points to the construction at Munich Haupenhof or Munich Central Station. I'm gonna briefly go through them as this is a huge project that will have lasting effects on the city. Number one, starting outside, the areas directly in front of and next to the stations will be entirely reorganized. These are extremely busy places, currently shared by cars, trams, buses, taxis, bikes, and of course people. It feels extremely chaotic, and the proposed plans would hopefully help with this. The area directly in front of the station will now be limited to just trams, bikes, and people walking. This will eliminate car traffic entirely and should make crossing the street or walking from Munich Central Station towards the city center much safer, easier, and less congested. Private cars and taxis will still have access, but just along the sides of the station. That is over fifteen thousand square meters or a hundred and sixty-seven thousand square feet. It has a very modern design with large glass windows throughout the entire building. It will house retail shops, restaurants, offices, restrooms, lockers, and basically anything you'd need when traveling through the station. The station's roof will also undergo work as it was built between 1959 and 1961, and many of its components are in need of replacement. Number four, a new 17-story tower will be built, housing offices, retail, restaurants, and more right at Munich Central Station. At the base of this building, there are plans for a bicycle parking garage, making for easy access on two wheels. In this area, they're also leaving space for a new U-Bahn line that we'll talk about later in the video. Number five, underneath Munich Central Station, new underground stations are being constructed for the addition of a second main line for the city's S-Bahn system. We'll talk about the S-Bahn system and the major improvements coming to it later in the video, but the system was originally designed for 250,000 passengers per day, and now it sees 840,000 per day. More on that later in the video. From here, uh we're gonna hop on the U-Bahn and head to Marionplatz, right in the center of Munich.
unknown:Cool.
SPEAKER_01:U-Bahn would require a transfer to go there, so we're gonna hop on a tram, uh the 21 tram that is about to pull up right now. Never believe anything, Lewis says. If you haven't liked this video already, please consider doing so. It helps us get the show to new people. Alright, so just had our first tram experience. Well, we rode some yesterday too, uh, but so similar experience to yesterday. Very busy.
SPEAKER_02:Very busy. Um compared to Vienna, definitely a little slower.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, at least at least the one today. I feel like yesterday they weren't necessarily going too slow. Um, but yeah, uh, I would say slower than Vienna, you're right. The frequencies very high. Um we walked up and there was one coming basically immediately. There's a little time board behind us, and they are different lines, but there's a lot of kind of interlining of the system here, and it's basically every couple minutes. Sometimes one minute, sometimes four minutes, six minutes. Um there's basically always another one coming, and because of that, we actually saw quite a few people just on this one get on and ride for like one stop, which just like saves them a little bit of time uh on the journey. So uh definitely interesting to check out. But we're gonna walk over towards the center of Marion Platz and go check it out. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:We made it to Marion Plots, uh to the new town hall here, which is famous for the uh Glockenspiel uh tower, I guess, or whatever you want to call it.
SPEAKER_01:There's a whole song and dance, literally, that's happening uh up in the tower. That's what all the applause is for right now.
SPEAKER_02:Um it's cool. It's a mechanical show that started in 1908 with the completion of the new city hall and uh has been going two or three times a day ever since, which is pretty awesome, and it draws a really big crowd.
SPEAKER_01:Yes, and uh, when I tell you, I I'm really upset that I missed it, but the audible reaction from the entire crowd when this thing started moving was amazing and worth worth coming to see. So um, yeah, we're gonna grab some coffee uh and then from here we will we're still deciding. There's quite a few different options for us to check out, so we will keep you updated. Just a few minutes' walk from Marianne Platz is Victualian Macht. This is an over 200-year-old farmers market that includes grocery vendors, food vendors, a beer garden, and much more. This downtown portion of Munich is unsurprisingly very walkable, featuring many pedestrian-only streets and plazas throughout. Alright, so we walked away from Marianne Platz and just stopped at a really cute market close by, got some coffee, got some food, and now we are going to hop on another tram to head out to one of the kind of famous castles uh outside of Munich. Schloss Nymphenberg. Yeah, there you go. Chris had it ready to go. So we're gonna hop on the tram that's pulling in right now. We rode the tram about 25 minutes to Schloss-Nymphenberg. I said castle a few times in this video and in our recent video from Vienna, but really the more correct translation is Palace. I blame Duolingo. If you are not already subscribed to the channel, we'll have the final part of this European trip from Zurich coming up in just a few weeks. We rode some very unique modes of transit there, and you definitely won't want to miss it. I think that's my favorite one.
SPEAKER_02:Schlob Nymphenburg.
SPEAKER_01:Alright, so we took the number 17 tram from kind of central Munich area after we stopped to grab some coffee and some food at the market there. Um, rode it quite a ways out. Uh the tram, as you mentioned earlier, starts off a little slower, but we moved pretty quickly after we got out of the center. As soon as we got out of city center, traffic opened up a little more. Yeah. Yep. Um, and we're now at Schloss-Nymphenberg.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, Schloss-Nymphenberg, which is this enormous, enormous palatial, uh, incredible palace. Uh it was built in 1664 and then just continually expanded and expanded and expanded. This is like Europe's version of the Winchester House in California. It just keeps going on and on and on and on. Yeah. It is absolutely massive. We're like encircled by it, basically. Yeah, we're kind of in the middle here, and so you'll you'll see how how large it is. But uh yeah, giant palace built in uh the 1600s for the Wittelsbach family.
SPEAKER_01:Yes. Um, but yeah, so pretty cool to come and see it. Uh if we had more time, it would be definitely really interesting to go inside and and check it out. But um back to the transit though. Uh a couple things we wanted to point out. So we've been on a few trams now, both today and yesterday, and uh a few positives and some negatives that we'll kind of mention. So, positives, uh the signage inside of all of them, it's everywhere, it's very modern, digital, digital tells you when the next stop is, tells you where connections are when you're approaching stops, like which buses or uh U-Bahns or S-bonds or whatever it may be you can get onto. So a major plus for that.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, and similar to other cities in Germany and what we experienced in Vienna, uh buying a ticket, you can use pretty much any method of transit in the area, including the S-Bahn, the U-Bahn, the bus, boostbahn. Uh I'm gonna make boosbon happen. Boosbahn. But uh the app is fairly easy to use once you download it. The only thing that was a little confusing is that here in Munich, uh the the price of your ticket, your day pass, changes based on how far out you need to go. So there's all these zones, it's like the M zone, which is sort of the central touristy part of the city, and goes all the way out to like zone 12. Uh, there wasn't a lot of direction on the app to explain what those zones meant.
SPEAKER_01:Right. Um, and it is fairly common in other cities in Europe. Uh I recently was in Copenhagen and they had a similar system. It was like zone one, zone two, zone three, excuse me. Um I think Frankfurt has a similar system too, but I'm not I'm not remembering exactly. Uh in addition to that, you also could uh pay for your fare on a lot of the transit vehicles that we've seen so far, uh, at least it's with with coins, which is also very German. Germany, uh, until recently, I feel like is very low-tech in terms of payments. There's still, even today, a lot of places that only accept cash, um, which uh is interesting in 2025. I feel like being an American in Europe, you're like, what is all this hand money that I need to carry around? Yes, yeah. Chris was commenting on how many coins I had uh like on the nightstand at the hotel. He was like, wow, you have a lot of coins, and it's just yeah, that's somebody has to carry cash. Yeah. Um uh one other interesting element about paying for transit. So uh given that I'm now living in Germany, I actually am kind of covered here in Munich because I pay monthly for the Deutschland ticket. So the Deutschland ticket is essentially a monthly subscription for public transit that covers all public transportation across every city in the whole country. Um and it also includes regional trains. So it doesn't include the ICE and the IC trains, but any regional trains that kind of bop from city to city, um, those are also included. And it's about 56 euros per month right now. So uh there is talk about raising the price of it, which is uh kind of hotly contested right now, but for for next year. Unfortunately, that price change is happening, and the new monthly price will rise from 58 euros to 63 euros per month. But uh for now, uh all of my public transport is included here. I just show a QR code on my phone if I were to ever, you know, need to, um, as well as an ID, uh, and be basically good to go. So another interesting thing, and honestly, really convenient for folks who live in the country.
SPEAKER_02:So, as people know about the Munich area, this part of Germany, it's famous for these big palaces and the medieval architecture and this sort of Bavarian architecture that you see. I've been telling a lot of people that this part of Germany is like the stereotypical Germany, like the part of Germany that Disney would base a new park on, or has already based parks on.
SPEAKER_01:Walking around the city center in Munich is just like, oh wow, and it's just like, yeah, yeah, it looks like Epcot, but it's actually like the real thing.
SPEAKER_02:Exactly. Uh but from here we're gonna jump on a bus and we're gonna go see something that's a little more on the modern side of Munich. Yes, something different for us. Yeah, something different.
SPEAKER_01:Just got off the 180 bus that we took from Schlaf Nymphenberg. We said we were headed to a kind of different.
SPEAKER_02:Something that's a little more modern part of Munich. So uh we have taken a step away from transit in a way, and now we are at the BMW factory and museum right here in Munich. Uh as many people know, Munich is famous for BMW as well as many other things, but it is the Bavaria Motorworks Company, and they have a massive um headquarters and museum here that look really cool actually to uh to check out.
SPEAKER_01:Absolutely. This is also the same area where the Olympics were held back in the 70s here in Munich. Uh so the Olympic Park is kind of just out behind us here. Um we passed it while we were on the bus. Um so wanted to kind of come out. This is also a little bit further outside of the city center, required taking a kind of a cross-town bus to get here. Um so we wanted to kind of put the more outer buses to the test a bit, and it came exactly on time, like to the minute on time, connected several different U-Bahn stops kind of that that are on different lines along the way. Um we stopped at one sort of spot which was probably a time point on the bus where we waited for a couple minutes, and that was definitely a bit of a transit hub with several buses ending there, uh tram and like having a stop there, the U-Bahn having a stop there. So definitely interesting. One pretty cool element on the buses, uh very similar to what we were seeing on the trams in the city, is the wayfinding is very, very clear. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Um it felt a lot more like a subway or being on the tram because you had one sign that told you maybe the next three stops, you had another sign that told you all of the stops for like the next 10 or more.
SPEAKER_01:Yep. And even like as you're approaching a stop, the sign that had the next three would change to show the different connections and how many minutes away those connections were as well. So a lot of information in a fairly easy to digest way. Um, you also had uh the option to pay for your fare right on board the bus as well.
SPEAKER_02:But aside from uh the fact that I'd be in trouble by my car addicted husband for not coming to the BMW Factory Museum, we also wanted to make a point that Germany's famous for being such a heavy car culture country. You have all of the famous luxury brands like Mercedes and BOW and Porsche, all based here. And yet we find ourselves in a city that is still really well connected with transit, so much so that if you are coming to this museum, if you are also a car addicted person, yeah, or you're coming to work at the factory, there are actually plenty of transit options to get you here.
SPEAKER_01:Right. Yes, you've got the U-Bahn stop. We took a bus here. Um, there are also uh tram lines not far, although I don't see them right here. Um so yeah, multiple ways to get here by transit. And again, even to hammer the point home of just Germany being an auto-centric country, this is home of the Autobahn. I mean, uh so beyond the car manufacturers, it's also where a lot of the original ideas for highways as we know them today initially came from. So um, you know, there's you can have car culture while also providing freedom of choice for folks to have multiple different ways to get around and not be locked into an expensive car payment. You can also potentially, you know, have a system with public transportation to get from point A to point B.
SPEAKER_02:You gotta be careful. You said the F-word.
SPEAKER_01:The F word, freedom, freedom. Taking back the word freedom. Freedom of choice. Yes.
SPEAKER_02:Uh so we're gonna check out this area and then from here we're going to um hop on a transit line. We're not sure which. Actually, I think we're gonna do the U-Bahn. Yes. So we're gonna do the U-Bahn back toward uh city center uh after we get a chance to walk around.
SPEAKER_01:After walking around the free portion of the BMW Museum and factory, we walked just a few minutes to the Olympia Zentrum U-Bahn station to catch the U3 headed towards Odeon's Plots. We're just gonna take a uh take our first U-Bahn of the day. Uh we got to ride one yesterday for a short bit. As we were walking to the station, we saw a very old one, which was really cool. Very contrasting from the one we were on.
SPEAKER_02:Like the 1970s boardroom on wheels.
SPEAKER_01:So be curious, be curious, be curious to see which uh which one we end up on now because the one we were on yesterday was very modern in comparison to what we were seeing in Vienna. Um check it out. Right, so we are now at the residence in Munich. We took the U Bahn uh three the yes, the U3, uh about five or six stops, uh, and yet another beautiful palatial building with a lovely garden.
SPEAKER_02:One thing we haven't mentioned so far uh on this trip is that we're doing this on a Saturday, and so we've been pleasantly surprised that there's been really frequent connectivity still, but even more surprising, everything has been packed.
SPEAKER_01:Yes, yeah, the the buses were busy, the trams have been busy, the U-Bahn was shoulder to shoulder. I mean, it was like we had to navigate to the exit like a stop early so that we knew we would be able to make it off. Um, and the frequencies for being a Saturday are still pretty high. The the least frequent was the bus, which isn't surprising because it was kind of a circ like you know circ circuitous, circuitous route. Wow, I'm struggling with that one. Uh a little bit further outside of the city, but even that was fairly busy. Um and I'd imagine during the week those frequencies are higher. So even then it was still a 20-minute bus, which is sometimes the better buses in our cities. Yes, unfortunately, yes. Um so yeah, and also on the U-Bahn, similar to everything else, really nice displays, clear entrances and exits and all of that sort of stuff with nice connectivity. Munich's U-Bahn system consists of eight lines with 96 stations running through the city operating on 95 kilometers or almost 60 miles of track. The system runs roughly from 4 30 in the morning till 1 in the morning, with night services operating on the weekends. Frequencies vary from every 5 to 10 minutes depending on the time of day per line. Similar to what we saw in Vienna, there are no turnstiles to enter, and for the most part, paying your fare is essentially an honor system. Occasionally you will see ticket checkers on board the train, and if you do not have proof of payment, you will be fined. There's currently planning in process for an additional north-south Ubon line, which would be the U9. There would be some interlining with existing lines, but it would also add five additional new stations to the system. Right now that we're about to head to a place that I've seen in my TikTok feed uh a handful of times, and it's actually pretty cool. There is a wave in uh one of the like smaller canals, rivers that folks actually surf on. So if we're lucky, someone will be surfing, and we're gonna go check that out. Unfortunately, it looks like they're doing some work, so we missed the surfing today. Which is okay. There is one other spot where this happens. We may go try to hit that, but if not, it's cool to at least see where it is, and next time we're here, we'll have to come check it out. Just so you have an idea, here are a couple clips of what it normally looks like. If you are just listening, this is a fairly narrow section of the river running through Munich where a wave is formed just below a bridge. Worth a quick Google search to see the video. Unfortunately, no surfing at all. We even had a second location we scouted out. Also no surfing.
SPEAKER_02:But middle detecting.
SPEAKER_01:They were, yes, there were folks like searching for things in the water, which was interesting. Um, yeah, they're doing some work. Normally there's some surfing. We'll include some clips uh so you can check it out. But um, a little further up uh into the park, there was this Chinese tower, um, as well as uh kind of a big beer garden and area with some food. Um we walked by another one earlier. In my experience so far, Germany does a really good job with having places to eat and drink inside of their parks, which is kind of a nice amenity to have um to enjoy some time outside on a nice day. And so uh we're gonna go indulge in that for a little bit because I'm a little bit hungry. Uh, and then we'll pick it up from there. We're probably gonna hop on another tram to kind of get make our way back towards uh the city center. We might mix in one more U-Bahn, S-Bahn. Um, we'll keep you posted after we eat some food. After eating, we continue to walk around a large park that runs along much of the Esau River to the north, with a narrow stretch continuing to the south as well. Despite it being a fairly chilly day, the park was really busy with folks of all ages enjoying the space. We can just hang out here for the rest of the day now.
SPEAKER_02:This is now uh cat's tangents.
SPEAKER_01:It's Katzen.
SPEAKER_02:Katzen. So we grabbed some lunch and some coffee in this cute little park next to the Chinese tower. Um we then decided we were gonna walk over to the Ubon station to uh take that back towards the city center, and then we ran into this, which is the triumphal arch of Munich.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, a nice little thing to stumble upon. Uh, not hard to stumble upon, beautiful buildings and structures in the city, as we've come to find out today. Um, but another one to add to the list. Uh the U-Bahn station is less than a block in that direction. So we're gonna go hop on and head back towards Marionplatz, where we're gonna at least go check out the S-Bahn. We might not go for like a long ride on the S-Bahn, but we wanted to make sure we got to check out and see what it looks like.
SPEAKER_02:We have noticed that there's a lot of cycling around Munich. There's actually pretty good infrastructure, cycle crossings, bicycle lanes, all of the above. What we haven't seen a lot of has been bike share. And apparently the larger bike share program that Munich had has been discontinued. They are waiting for a new regional service, but it seems to be caught up in a little bit of legal trouble, so that may be further delayed. But in the meantime, there are options like the the line bike. There are a couple scooters that we've seen around, but there's also a bike service operated by Deutsche Bahn called Callabike, and so you can use the Deutsche Bahn app to actually find those bikes uh to be able to get around as well.
SPEAKER_01:Much less crazy now. Uh we can take any of these. Alright, so we just did another trip on the U-Bahn. Uh also came very quickly. We basically walked into the station. Two minutes later, one pulled up. Uh, pretty convenient. Um we went from the Universitate stop to Marionplatz, uh, which is kind of close to where we started the day. We're tucked away right now in a very cool kind of courtyard area that we'll make sure it's a bit of a lot of time. Inside of the old uh the old city hall or the new city hall.
SPEAKER_02:Behind the Blockenspiel you saw this morning. Like we saw this morning. Yeah. The station started to get a lot busier throughout the day, especially once we arrived back at the city center. There seems to be a football game going on, so there's a lot of really uh excited people moving through the system.
SPEAKER_01:Yes, and uh to their credit, I mean the transit agency has like tons of people in the stations now, like moving people through the escalators and down the stairs in a particular way so that the crowds are not getting bunched up and so that you can not only enter if you're going to the game, but so that you can exit like we were. So pretty cool to see that they're ready for the crowds. We were hoping to be able to show you an S-Bahn train, but we were running low on time and also struck out by trying to ride one for a short period from Marianne's Platz back to the central station, but realized the S-Bahn stop there was closed due to construction while we were there at least. I'm not sure the details of what the closure was for or how long it was lasting. Overall though, Munich has a very extensive S-Bahn system with eight lines, 150 stations, and over 434 kilometers or almost 270 miles of tracks. When the system was constructed, it was built to carry 250,000 passengers per day. But today that number is more like 850,000. Currently, 7 kilometers of new tunnels are currently being constructed through the city center to alleviate congestion, where currently trains are running every two minutes. At the current rate, even a small issue or delay can cascade into a disaster for S-bond schedules. Once complete, the new tunnels should relieve the pressure to ensure the reliability of the system. Overall, though, uh again, as we kind of expected from Vienna yesterday, here again today, things went pretty damn smooth. Especially again, like we have to consider today was Saturday. So service was not at the highest levels that they would be during the week. And I mean we still encountered extremely reliable service all day long everywhere we went.
SPEAKER_02:One thing that we did notice that was different between Vienna and Munich is that Vienna's system does seem a little more uh less centralized on the central part of Vienna. There's a little bit more radial connections that go around the city, whereas in Munich it did seem like most of the transit options do funnel back in toward the middle of the city. And then there are some connectors. There are a couple street uh trams and a couple of uh buses that also connect sort of in a more radial way. So those connections do exist, but when it comes down to like the trains, they're a lot more centralized here than what we saw in Vienna.
SPEAKER_01:Right. You basically end up coming back either to where we are right now at Marionplatz or to the Munich Haupt Ben Hof station, um, which definitely makes makes kind of getting around a little trickier if you're going from an outer part to an outer part, um, at least on rail. But the bus that we did take today, I mean, not the most frequent at 20 minutes, but still a decent option, and it it moved pretty well. I mean, it was kind of a funny route. It felt like we were making lots of turns and whatnot, but when you do start to get further off from the city, that's kind of what you're left with. It's gonna be inevitable. Um, yeah. Uh, I do think overall, like this was probably one of the better places we've been to on the show as far as the wayfinding and the signage on all of the transit vehicles. There wasn't a single one where there wasn't a clear wayfinding system showing you the next couple stops, uh telling you when you can get off, like all of that sort of stuff. Um, even a lot of signage as you're leaving the stations, saying like which street each exit will take you to. That takes some foreknowing of like where you're going. That can be confusing, especially as a visitor, but um nice to have those options there.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, absolutely. So, all in all, I'd say this is a really great experience. Uh, we've really enjoyed Munich. I think this is both of our first times here. It is a beautiful city, so definitely recommend you come check it out and ride the transit.
SPEAKER_01:Absolutely. Um anything else we need to add?
SPEAKER_02:You're gonna add some voiceover stuff. That's what I think.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, that won't be for now.
SPEAKER_02:Um we can talk about the next stop, Zurich.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, yeah, yeah. And we should, we should like um tomorrow morning we're gonna catch the yeah, from Munich out and off. Yeah. Um from here, tomorrow morning, we will be continuing our third stop on this uh tour again. Started in Vienna, today in Munich. Uh we'll be headed to Zurich. Uh I'm pretty excited for that one. Neither of us have been there either, so this will be another first. We'll be taking uh the like ECE train, um, which I don't think I've done an ECE. I've done an EC from Hamburg to Copenhagen. Um, but those are kind of like the international ones where it crosses a border. So we'll see how that train compares to the train we were on coming from Vienna to Munich. But we'll be taking that tomorrow morning uh over to Zurich. It's about a three and a half hour journey. Uh and then we'll be in the land of Swiss trains, which we'll see if they actually are as efficient and timely. I thought you were about to say, and then we'll be in the land of Swiss cheese. Swiss Swiss cheese, Swiss trains, Swiss chocolate.
SPEAKER_02:Oh yeah, Swiss chocolate.
SPEAKER_01:Yes. Um, I'm pretty excited for that. Uh, and we'll probably take you along in the journey in the morning so you can see the experience, getting on the train and all that sort of stuff. Absolutely from here. So um, with all that being said, uh let us know. Obviously, there's plenty of stuff that we missed here in Munich. There are a lot of things and places you could go see. Um, as we mentioned earlier, we weren't able to get the S-Bahn into our day today. Um, partly just because a lot of the S-Bahn trains are taking you significantly further out of the city, and it would have taken quite a bit of time to go do that. And then at the end we were gonna mix it in, and then we kind of forgot that the the tunnel through downtown uh is currently having a lot of construction done along with the construction at the Haupenhof, so uh made it a little bit tricky. But um plenty of places to go check out. Let us know which ones we missed, uh, other things that we should have talked about in this episode, other places you'd like to see us go, uh, so that the next time Chris is uh over here, we can get some additional cities planned. Um if you haven't left a comment already, please consider doing so. It helps us out quite a bit. You can like the video, you can subscribe to our channel to continue to help us grow.
SPEAKER_02:The uh merch store. I'm just gonna wear this every time it's cold.
SPEAKER_01:Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think I'm wearing the same exact thing I was wearing uh for the Vienna one because it is my warmest sweatshirt underneath here, so uh that was pretty funny. But um, if you want to support the show directly, you can also do so via our Patreon. But with all of that being said, thank you all so much for watching and enjoy the rest of your transit tangents to me for a car today.
SPEAKER_00:I'm saving that go public transit service, watch me go.
