- Karlsruhe 7:19, Schaffhausen 11:24, via Horb, to share a Baden-Württemberg-Ticket for most of the way.
Ekorren and Koepfel might try to combine their trips to share a Baden-Württemberg-ticket for groups. This will save a few euros, and allow to invite three more people, but result in significant detours for at least one of them.
