[PRCo] Zurich

[Schneider Fred]

When I tried to copy a .pdf file into this, it opened it.   I assume  
that Derrick's server will recompress it and you will again have to  
reopen it.   So somewhere it this message, either beneath this series  
of sentences or at the bottom will be a .pdf file that contains a  
transit map of Zurich, Switzerland.   I'm providing it because of Bob  
from "Crazy California"  began asking questions about trainsit in  
this Swiss city.   I think you will all find the array of routes  
astonishing for a city of just 377,000 people.
The pale blue lines afre all bus lines.   Solid black is S-bahn  
(commuter railroad) and the intercity trains also run over some of  
those same routes.   For example, all of the intercity trains to the  
northeastern part of the nation go through the basement of the  
airport ...  you will see it in the upper right portion of the map to  
the left of the suburban town of Kloten.   Apparently the Forchbahn  
is considered part of the S-bahn network ... it is that interurban in  
the southeast that runs beyond the 11 car line.

All of the pretty colored lines are streetcar lines.

The dashed blue lines in the middle of the lake are ferries.

In the east central portion of the city I can find not less than  
three funiculars.
