No, plafform 1 - π
- Yeah, now that you say it. xD
- So round about 2?
  
  plus or minus
as a German, I automatically read past that but you're absolutely right. that is bad design, lmao
- All it needs is a space after the comma, then it becomes perfectly clear.
I'm more curious where platforms 4 and 5 are.
- If i remember correctly, they are right next to the sign. 😉
  
  How about 8 to 13?
- Pretty sure you'll have to ram a shopping cart into the wall to get there.
Not if it was in Indiana though.
This looks so familiar, but where is it? Dortmund Hbf?
- I think it's somewhere in cologne
- Those signs are the same at all German train stations, and lots of cities have a nordstadt. Could be anywhere really.
  
  I am from the area where this particular sign with the strange track distribution is located, but I just can't put my finger on it. Dortmund, Essen, Cologne. Must be somewhere here because I've seen it so many times! And you're right, "Zentrum" and "Nordstadt" are pretty generic, that's why I cannot find it through online searches, I guess.
Is it real?
- Yes but it’s not rational

  I don't have anything to add, but feel the need to express appreciation for this. I got married on 3/14/15.
  
  Good one

- There's no space after a comma in German mathematics. This really looks like it should.
  
  Source: German as fuck.
  
  In maths maybe not, but that's not maths, it's more like a sentence. There should be a space after comma.
- there is clearly no space after the comma, and its written in german, so of course its using the german comma system
