What it is like to ride the S-bahn after a Fussball Match


The S-bahn, aka the Schnellbahn is a suburban train. It travels pretty quickly between the innerparts of Frankfurt to the suburbs, like Oberursel where I live.

Here is another video of something that you might run into while on the train. Drunken Fans singing!

While riding the train, I always try to keep vigilant and remain behind the scenes. I don't try to attract attention to myself, and the train is fairly safe from violence, but you can't always deter some crazy people from boarding the train.


Also, while on the S-bahn, the RMV (Rhein Main Verkehr) similar to Frankfurt Dept. of Transit, advertises how embarassing it can be caught without having a valid ticket. Their choice of advertising, however, would probably be scandalous by most, and a public organization would shy away from such provocative messages.
