Since I was a kid, I've had an interest in all forms of transportation. I lived in Germany during my middle school years and immediately became fascinated with Germany's extensive transportation system. Back in 1998, I was a regular contributor to a newsgroup about European travel and found that I was answering many of the same questions about transportation options in Germany. A search of the Internet showed that there really weren't any websites at that time that discussed this utterly practical matter, so I developed my website to fill that niche and help travelers find the info they need to get around Germany!
