Nuremberg U-Bahn - Booster Lines

Booster Lines

To increase passenger capacity on the central parts of the subway, additional trains are scheduled which reverse before the line terminus and run only the central areas of Nürnberg. To reduce passenger confusion these trains are assigned a different line designation (line number):

Line Route Opened Length Stations
U 11 Eberhardshof ↔ Messe 1972–2007 8.1 km (5.033 mi) 14
U 21 Röthenbach → Ziegelstein 1984–1999 11.0 km (6.835 mi) 15

Famous quotes containing the word lines:

    “Was seiz’d by the spirit that trails in the lines underfoot,
    The rim, the sediment that stands for all the water and all the land
    of the globe.

    Fascinated, my eyes reverting from the south, dropt, to follow those slender windrows,
    Chaff, straw, splinters of wood, weeds, and the sea-gluten,
    Scum, scales from shining rocks, leaves of salt-lettuce, left by the tide,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
