The world's second largest O-bahn!


We were calmfully sitting on this bus when it suddenly headed into these tracks that looked like train tracks with a speed of more than 80 k/h. We were just crossing our fingers that the driver knows what he is doing and that he can keep between the rails, but to our surprise he wasn't even holding on to the steer! he was only pushing the gas pedal! Well I guess now you know what an O-baun is. when buses get into these tracks some elements that are connected to the front wheels fix the bus between the rails and that's how it keeps in place. Germany has the world's largest O-bahn and the second largest is in Adelaide Australia! Hurray!!!

i have to admit that mohammad is right; adelaide obahn is the largest obahn in the world. for more information please see the above link.
by the way, the price of tickets has become somehow complicated due to the different varieties it has. but overall i may say that a single travel (taking about 3 hours time) will cost you approximately 3 AU$.
