Berlin S-Bahn S7 Train from Potsdam Hauptbahnhof to Berlin Zoologischer Garten

The Berlin S-Bahn is the suburban railway network operating on main railway lines on stopping services. Heading back to Berlin, I took the Berlin S-Bahn S7 train from Potsdam Hauptbahnhof as there was no departing RE1 train, and the S7 while stopping at more stations have frequent departures.
