ETE: On SWISS Busses...

Lauren Hilliard • Saturday August 5, 2006

Isn’t this a lovely place to wait for the bus? Kind of hard to beat standing in front of a vineyard with a castle looking down on you! Every day, I walked down the hill from the house I’m staying in at either :09 or :39, and catch the #814 to the Uster train station EXACTLY on time. I then walk to the platform to catch the S5 train to Zurich which comes EXACTLY 3 minutes later, then walk out of the Zurich Hauptbahnhoft (main station) and can catch a tram to get me anywhere in the city. The bus is very pleasant to ride — with businessmen in suits, to mothers pushing strollers, to college students with their dogs.
