“Get there by train S8, station \"schöneweide\". Use the entrance to the (cheaper) \"jet\" gas station. Good and famous place to leave Berlin southwards (dresden, praha).”

“Waited mid day for 3 hours with a sign for Dresden and Prague. No luck. There were 3 other hitchhikers around and none of them got lucky. This Place should be perfect for a ride, but i guess i was unlucky...”
