As of now, Palace is closest to me, and the rest is pretty much a long train ride. Ha Originally Posted by p0conggPalace is not ideal for initiation into FKK kingdom, too much upsell and rip-off.

I'd also suggest getting a return ticket at the station from a human on your trip to the FKK...using the machines when returning can be confusing. And be sure to stamp the ticket if it is not dated. If you are asked to show your ticket having one without a date stamp is like not having one at all. Originally Posted by sean rider

re: Train Tickets - Some train tickets will have the date and time preprinted on them. For those you are good to go. Other tickets will not. Tickets are not checked on every run of every line. In fact, most of the time nobody will ask for your ticket. This is why the date/time stamp is important. Otherwise you could ride the train a dozen times on the same ticket. (By stamp I mean an ink imprint like you would get from a rubber stamp, not a sticky square of paper like a postage stamp.)
So where your ticket doesn't have a date/time preprinted you need to stamp it. You will find metal boxes where you slide the ticket in and it will KERCHUNK stamp it. The box will usually be on the platform where you wait, but sometimes there is a stamping machine on the train itself as you enter.
Oh...here's a little clue. European trains tend to not open doors automatically. There will be a push button near the door you will have to use to get the door open, both when getting in and getting out. Originally Posted by sean rider
Is there a U-bahn station or track within the main station? For example, I'm planning to go to Palace, I'd have to alight at Frankfurt (Main) West station and walk ~25 min to palace, but another route is I can take the U-bahn and alight at Industrihf U-bahn station. Where should I take the U-bahn at? Anyone knows?

Get off at Daimlerstr., head South on Daimler and follow the club sign (about 200 m to destination). I have left the club as late as 11 pm and the trains still run with good frequency. Single ride tickets are easily purchased at the vending machines at every stop and no stamping necessary. A taxi is an option (about 18 euros to downtown) if you are unsure of yourself late at night.
