Title: Sofia Post by: basset44 on December 17, 2012, 17:03:30 Hi All,
Just been on a transport system that seems modern and interlinked ( well the new metro) can only dream about it when I come back and of course a ticket that can be used across the range and they have something similar to oyster and its costs lee than two pounds for 24 hours.

Even including the Elbe ferry at Bad Shandau on the larger Dresden ticket. In Erfurt the last trams from the centre make guarenteed bus connections at the outer terminals.
But we have to have competition! Except in London which always puzzles me! Title: Re: Sofia Post by: trainer on December 18, 2012, 09:38:41 It puzzles and disappoints me that as the London system works so well, other parts of the country are hamstrung by the competition laws to prevent integration.
