Plans

Anyone who shows up will probably get a media attention achievement. An RNZ reporter will join me on the expedition. --Fivetonsofflax 15:29, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

That's great! Count me in (as long as it's somewhat reachable) Koepfel talk 16:08, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
Is this going to happen in any case and in the Mannheim graticule? Or, otherwise, when will it be determined whether it will take place and which point the expedition will aim at? --Ekorren 14:38, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
It will take place, most probably in the Mannheim graticule. In case the point will be really far away and easier to reach in another graticule, we might go there. We will decide later today when we know the exact location. Fivetonsofflax 12:44, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

It's only a 4 km walk from Darmstadt Süd. Count me in! --ilpadre 14:37, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

We'll probably arrive in Darmstad TU-Lichtwiese at 14:50. That should give us enough time to be at the hashpoint at 16:00. Fivetonsofflax 14:51, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
I'll walk from Darmstadt Süd and be at the coordinates at 16:00 in any case (depending on if I can catch the 13:21 train in Heidelberg and how fast I walk I'll either have to wait 45 minutes or arrive just in time - but I'll probably be at the hashpoint at about 15:20). --ilpadre 15:11, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Oh, you're right. Starting from Darmstadt Süd would be smarter. I suppose we'll do this as well. We'll probably also take the 13:21 train. Fivetonsofflax 18:03, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Count me in, too. Might be a more expensive expedition (I'm currently at 15€ both ways for me, from Karlsruhe, unless we find some kind of group ticket?), but it'll be worth it. I'd probably also take the 13:21 one (S-Bahn from KA arrives at 13:11), I wouldn't mind taking an earlier train, though (since we are more than one person, we are allowed to move the saturday meetup time). Koepfel talk 18:11, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
So we'll probably go all the way together, that's nice! :) It's exactly 3 km from Darmstadt Süd (if you follow the hiking trails the Google maps planner doesn't know about), so we'll only need to walk about 30 to 40 minutes. Fun fact: The hashpoint is only 3.5 km from the 2010-01-06 coordinates (as the ring-necked parakeet flies). Still too far (and too cold) to check if my marker is still there. --ilpadre 18:16, 12 March 2010 (UTC)


So that's totally the wrong part of the graticule, which means I'm out (I don't mind going far, but going to Darmstadt is simply far too expensive.). --Ekorren 14:51, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm... so currently there are:

  • Koepfel, pays 15 EUR
  • Three people from Heidelberg, probably pay at least 10 each, probably more (depending on which Bahncards and monthly passes are available)

Which sums up to not less than 40, probably much more.

You or we could buy a Wochenendticket for 37 EUR, valid for 5 people. In that case I would join as well, if it can be organized as follows:

  • I buy the ticket and start early enough to...
  • pick up Koepfel somewhere within of the area where his monthly pass is valid (probably Bruchsal)
  • the others join at Heidelberg
  • same thing on the way back
  • everyone pays a share of the total

Will check timetables now. --Ekorren 18:20, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

In that case the general timetable would be:

(from Tübingen not fixed now - might try to squeeze a double hash into the schedule)
Karlsruhe-Durlach 12:33
Bruchsal 12:44
Heidelberg Hbf 13:11 / 13:21
Darmstadt Süd 14:24

Latest possible train back would be:

Darmstadt Süd 20:33
Heidelberg 21:39 / 21:55
Karlsruhe 22:35 / 23:16
Stuttgart 0:36 / 0:48
Tübingen 1:50

If we share the ticket, it's only 7.40 per person in average. Less than even a single ticket with BC25 from Heidelberg to Darmstadt. --Ekorren 18:59, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
