History
S-Bahn station Marienplatz with S7 to Munich East An underground railway line for Munich was first proposed in 1928 in a report on the `` relocation of traffic centres '' . An underground route would allow `` direct long distance traffic to and through the city centre '' . On 22 May 1938 , the first tunnel , which was part of the north-south route , was started in the Lindwurmstraße , between the present-day underground stations Sendlinger Tor and Goetheplatz . In the speech of Julius Dorpmüller , the general director of Deutsche Reichsbahn , the project was called `` S-Bahn '' for the first time . Due to World War II the construction and plans for the Munich S-Bahn were set aside .
The Munich S-Bahn () is an electric rail transit system in Munich, Germany. S-Bahn is the German abbreviation for Stadtschnellbahn (literally, urban rapid rail), and the Munich S-Bahn exhibits characteristics of both rapid transit and commuter rail systems. The Munich S-Bahn network is operated by S-Bahn München, a subsidiary of DB Regio Bayern that is itself a subsidiary of the German national railway. It is integrated into the Munich Transport and Tariff Association (Münchner Verkehrs- und Tarifverbund, MVV) and interconnected throughout the city with the locally owned Munich U-Bahn. Today, the S-Bahn covers most of the populated area of the Munich Metropolitan area of about 2.7 million inhabitants. The Munich S-Bahn was established on 28 May 1972. It was intended as part of the scheme to provide an adequate transport system during the 1972 Summer Olympics held in Munich by connecting the pre-existing suburban rail services in the west and east of the city via a new tunnel section from Hauptbahnhof to München Ost station (Ostbahnhof).
