Changes

* If you fail to show your ticket to an inspector you will most likely get a fine of 40 EUR which needs to be paid by bank transfer within about 10 days. Rumors are that even if you are a foreigner but living within the European Union an announcement to pay will be send even to your country.

* Ticket inspectors in Dresden (DVB AG) are dressed in civil clothes.

* Ticket inspectors are difficult but possible to spot: They do '''not''' look like students which mostly carry a laptop case and/or wear a white or light blue shirt with a collar. They do '''not''' look like businessmen which would wear suit and tie. The are mostly '''not''' older than 50 to 55 years. They are mostly '''not''' younger than 20 years. They do '''not''' carry any (large) case, (heavy or completely filled) backpack or plastic (shopping) bag with them. They do '''not''' use mp3 player or walkmen with any sort of earphones. They mostly appear in smaller groups of two or three men in an average dress (sloppy T-shirt or pullover, jeans, a fisherman vest, cheaper non-brand shoes). They are mostly standing (or sitting) together but are '''not''' talking (or arguing) to/at each other in public.

* Ticket inspectors mostly carry a very small waist backpack or normal (but almost empty) backpack underneath a vest/shirt where their DVB AG computer devices or official papers are in.
