Frankfurt train map
This RMV plan shows the regional rail network centred on Frankfurt: S-Bahn lines, regional express (RE) and regional (RB) trains, and the stations served by long-distance ICE and IC trains, from the Rhine valley to Hesse's northern and eastern borders.
Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof is one of Germany's busiest railway stations and a terminus station, so many trains reverse there. ICE trains reach Cologne in about an hour on the high-speed line, and there are direct services to Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris.
Frankfurt has several other important stations: Frankfurt Süd in Sachsenhausen, the airport's long-distance station (Fernbahnhof) for ICE trains, and Frankfurt West and Frankfurt-Höchst on the regional lines. Regional trains and the S-Bahn make it easy to visit Mainz, Wiesbaden, Darmstadt, Hanau or the Taunus without a car.
