S-bahn/Olympics

To get to work in the morning - and back in the evening, I take the S7 line of the S-bahn (Suburban or Surface). There is also the U-bahn (Underground) lines, which are more the typical subway. However, while the U-bahn is always underground, the S-bahn is mostly above ground in the suburbs, but underground in the city center. The U-bahn dates from the 1972 Olympics, and the S-bahn is about 20 years old.

Starting from a little south of my house, the stops are, heading north

Höllriegelskreuth
Pullack
Großhesselohe Isartalbahnhof
Solln
Siemenswerke
Mittersendling
Harras
Heimeranplatz
Donnersbergerbrücke
Hackerbrücke
Hauptbahnhof
Karlsplatz (Stachus)
Marienplatz
Isartor
Rosenheimerplatz
Ostbahnhof
...

I get on at Großhesslohe and off at Hauptbahnhof (central train station). Then I take the tram (either line 20, 21, or 22) north on Dachauerstrasse toward Hochschule München. The stops are

Hauptbahnhof Nord
Karlsstrasse
Stiglmeierplatz
Sandstrasse
Hochschule München (Lothstrasse)

I you keep going north on Dachauerstrasse, you will reach Olympiapark, the area where the Olympics were held: swim stadium, track and field stadium, and basically a very nice park. Here's a view of the swim stadium, where Mark Spitz won his 7 gold medals!
