The Munich U-Bahn (German: U-Bahn München)[note 2] is an electric rail rapid transit network in Munich, Germany. The system began operation in 1971[1], and is operated by the municipally owned Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft (MVG; Munich Transport Company). The network is integrated into the Münchner Verkehrs- und Tarifverbund (MVV; Munich Transport and Tariff Association) and interconnected with the Munich S-Bahn. The U-Bahn currently comprises eight lines, serving 96 stations (100 stations if four interchange stations with separate levels for different lines are counted twice), and encompassing 103.1 kilometres (64.1 mi) of routes.[1]

The network has 103.1 kilometres (64.1 mi) of active route,[1] and 100 stations.[1][note 1] In 2014, 390 million passengers rode the U-Bahn.[1] The trains operate at speeds up to 80 kilometres per hour (50 mph), which is the top speed among German U-Bahns. There is no continuous operation during the night (break from 1 to 4 am, 2 to 4 am on weekends) except on special occasions such as New Year's Eve...

Hi,

One of the best subway system in the world, I think. Singapore may be cleaner?

Hope you enjoy!

The far corner of this modern rail transport is anchored at the far side of Munich, on the edge of Purlocker Forest. At that location the German Government needed to rid themselves of the old head quarters of the SS for all of Germany. They managed to destroy the old 'fort' and remove the memory. By the way, there was a rail system underground there that went from the location to the main train station with a spur to Dachau.

Thanks kpmac!

Probably it is the same for Tokyo and Singapore - Cleanest cities in the world!

You remember the American kid did something bad in Singapore long times ago?
