All Aboard The Sharks Xpress
[QUOTE=Pistons;1914023]If you do happen to go to and from sharks / frankfurt main station, the regional train will save you 20-30 min compared to the s bahn. So its actually just as quick as going by car (if you dont have to wait at least). With just 1 intermediate stop. Then again you'll have to take a taxi from darmstadt hauptbahnhof to sharks.[/QUOTE]Then again, the very best connection is via the VIA train from FFM Hbf leaving at 25 minutes after most (but not all) hours from Gleis 12 (usually). It goes direct to Darmstadt Nord, a 18-or-so minute trip that deposits you ten minutes walking time from Sharks. It costs 8. 25 euros with no intermediate stop and no taxi needed. Thanks to Syz for posting the existence of this (Sharks Express) train option, which he did at least two years ago.
