München Ost (München / Munich)

München Ost lives up to its name with a location to the east of the city centre.
The trains on the main railway route between München and Salzburg travel in a semi-circle around the southern side of the city in order to access the city's main rail terminal, München Hbf, as the railway tracks in an out of Munchenn Hbf face westwards.
Hence it takes around 10 mins for long-distance trains to make the journey between München Ost and München Hbf.

Though most of the local (S-Bahn) trains in München/Munich use a tunnel to cross the city centre and München Ost is at the eastern end of this tunnel.
So around every 5 -10mins in each direction all day these-S-Bahn trains link München Ost to a station in the heart of the city centre, named Marienplatz and they also call at station named Isator, which is within a 10 minute walk of the Deutsches Museum

Therefore for rail journeys between München city centre and Salzburg (and beyond) the quickest route is to make the transfer between express / regio trains and S-Bahn trains at München Ost and not at München Hbf.

Around every 20 mins S-Bahn trains on line S8 connect München Ost with München Flughafen (airport).
