I'm going to Berlin next weekend, Friday to Sunday, and wondered if anyone knew the best ticket to buy so I can travel around the city for those days...?

That 9 euro ticket seems too good to be true? I can buy that and travel anywhere within Berlin all weekend..?!
Taunton was referring to the Tageskarte.Regarding stamping the ticket, that is true if the ticket fits the machine. My 9 euro ticket was twice the size with no space for a stamp, and no ticket examiner looked for a stamp either.
Yeah, it'd be valid on those services.So I get that it's not valid on the intercity/express trains; would it be valid on the Regional trains from Berlin Brandenburg airport into the city centre?
The Kindertransport memorial is on the south side of Friedrichstraße station. On the north side you find the GDR-era Tränenpalast exit hall were passengers queued for checks when leaving East Berlin (now a museum, free entry, definitely worth a visit!)If you pass by Friedrichstrasse station on the north side outside, go and say hello to this little group for us all, will you please :
Nicholas Winton - 19 May Google icon
The Google homepage image today (Tuesday 19 May 2020) commemorates Nicholas Winton's 111th birthday. He was the organiser of the Kindertransport, which brought children out of Germany, Czechoslovakia, etc to Britain in 1938-9, just before the start of WW2. Most came via Hook-Harwich, and...www.railforums.co.uk
Whoops! Quite right. Sorry. It's in Georgenstr. as the photo in the link.The Kindertransport memorial is on the south side of Friedrichstraße station.
There was when it was built and named. There were subsequent extensions added (and a few bits of the triangle abandoned).Gleisdreieck, track triangle, is there anything triangular about it?
