a little side note:
the smoking ban was established at all German railway stations last year as well. But if smokers were waiting for a train, they couldnt send them out of the building, so they might miss their train.
So, what was the solution for this problem?
As you see, every station now has this yellow square somewhere on all the platforms, where people who want to smoke have to go. But the joke on all this is that it doesnt help anyone. As you see the non-smokers have to sit right next to the square, and there is no kind of seperation. To make it comfortable they also put the yellow suqares right to the centre of the platforms, so the majority of non-smokers has to either walk by or stand near.
And now the funniest thing:
This was established to 'save' non-smokers, BUT a lot of stations were strictly non-smoking before the 'ban'
