We need to allow for:

  • Dangleways every 30 mins
  • Ferries every 30 mins

Neither of those count as stations for large games. They do in small/medium games.

  • Heritage railways every 60 mins.

Aslo include #37

In each game, you should establish what type of transport is, or is not, allowed.

For large games, we allow:

  • Any railway station or halt that is covered under Interrail or the rail pass we are using.
  • This includes tram-trains, S-bahns, and Stadtbahns, but not trams, metros, or U-bahns
  • Walking (not running) between stations
  • Funiculars, cable cars, and dangleways
  • Ferries
  • Heritage railways and detached railways

In the case of funiculars, cable cars, dangleways, detached and historic railways and ferries, there must be a maximum spend of 20€ per person per round. This normally implies a return fare, but may also include alternative transport options if such exist. This includes city transport cards, though the hider must inform the seekers of that possibility when it becomes relevant.

The hiding zone must be centered around a railway station or halt, including heritage or detached railways. There should be at least one passenger vehicle through the stop per hour in the entire seeking time. Wheaton's law applies.

Cable cars, dangleways and ferries may be used in the Hiding Zone, as long as there is at least one vehicle through the stop every 30 minutes.

In small/medium games we allow trams, metros and u-bahns to be used, and any stop that can be reached by any of the allowed methods of transport count as a base stop for the hiding zone.

For avoidance of confusion, Wuppertal Schwebebahn, Düsseldorf Skytrain and Dortmund H-bahn count as railways when determining hiding zones, but the Dresden Schwebebahn doesn't.

In Netherlands large games, we additionally allow Rotterdam Metro Line B.
