I've spend a lot of time in Berlin, and I find it hard to read. Mostly in that sometimes it's relatively annoying to determine what lines will get me from Station A to Station B.
For example, let's say you're a tourist and you arrive at Hauptbahnhof, and you need to get to get to Alexanderplatz - what lines will get you there?
There's a whole bunch, and it's very hard to figure that out quickly. Or you might see that the S9 does what you need and you'll just wait for that, so you'll go there and wait, while the S3,S5,S7 pass you by.

You sound like a person who walked up to me yesterday with a Google maps opened asking me how she would get to her destination in Google maps. > For example, let's say you're a tourist and you arrive at Hauptbahnhof, and you need to get to get to Alexanderplatz - what lines will get you there? The smartphone is there not just to listen to podcasts or watch TV
- bdhess 8y agoThe S9 is literally on the same platform as every other S-Bahn train that goes from Hbf to Alexanderplatz, so you'd also have to willfully ignore the ample station signage for all the trains that pass you by.
