The Hamburg U-Bahn is a rapid transit system serving the cities of Hamburg, Norderstedt and Ahrensburg in Germany. Although technically an underground, most of the system’s track length is above ground. The network is interconnected with the city’s S-Bahn system, which also has underground sections. It is operated by Hamburger Hochbahn within the Hamburger Verkehrsverbund (HVV). It was opened in February 1912, and comprises four lines serving 91 stations, with a route length of 104 kilometres (65 mi) in 2012. — WIKIPEDIA
