List Of Railway Stations In Berlin
This list covers the railway stations in the Berlin area. These include both passenger stations and marshalling yards, but not goods stations. Because the Berlin S-Bahn network has expanded to include stations in the state of Brandenburg, the table shows only those stations lying within the Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg's present-day Berlin ABC fare zones (i.e. those up to about 15 kilometres from the Berlin city boundary), and those formerly served by Berlin's suburban services. The latter ran out beyond the capital's boundaries to the next largest towns along the main and branch lines. The farthest towns on the lines covered here are listed below: Rüdnitz ( Stettin Railway) – Werneuchen (Wriezen Railway) – Strausberg (Prussian Eastern Railway) – Fürstenwalde (Lower Silesian-Märkisch Railway) – Kablow ( Königs Wusterhausen–Grunow) – Königs Wusterhausen ( Görlitz Railway) – Mittenwalde ( Neukölln–Mittenwalde railway) – Wünsdorf ( Dresden ...

Brandenburg (; nds, Brannenborg; dsb, Bramborska ) is a state in the northeast of Germany bordering the states of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Saxony, as well as the country of Poland. With an area of 29,480 square kilometres (11,382 square miles) and a population of 2.5 million residents, it is the fifth-largest German state by area and the tenth-most populous.

There was an unsuccessful attempt to unify both states in 1996 and the states cooperate on many matters to this day. Brandenburg originated in the Northern March in the 900s AD, from areas conquered from the Wends. It later became the ...
