Stammstrecke 2 (Munich U-Bahn)
In 2003, the U1 was extended again by a station to the Georg-Brauchle-Ring and a year later the today's most northern stop, the Olympic shopping center, was completed.
Directly above the platform Königsplatz, an art museum (Kunstbau) was created in 1994, in a previously unused cavity, which can be reached from the barrier floor of the station.
During the construction work on the track, an accident occurred at the Trudering station in 1994, when the ceiling of the newly opened tunnel collapsed due to penetrating water, and a bus fell into the formed crater.
The time until the subway opening had to be compensated by massive bus shuttle traffic from the S-Bahn stations Riem and Trudering.
The route of the U2 runs through the railway station Dülferstraße, colorfully designed by Ricarda Dietz, which connects the eastern parts of Hasenbergl as well as the newly built area on the Panzerwiese, which was the end of the U2 between 1993 and 1996.
In addition, after the opening of this route, the Tramlinie 12 from Harthof to Scheidplatz was removed and line 13 to Hasenbergl was stopped.
Through Schwabing and Maxvorstadt, the route goes to the city center through the railway stations Hohenzollernplatz, Josephsplatz, Theresienstraße and Königsplatz.
In the Königsplatz station, designed by Josef Wiedemann and Johannes Segieth, replicas of works of art from the neighboring Glyptothek and the Staatliche Antikensammlungen can be found on the subway platform.
The next station Georg-Brauchle-Ring is named after the street on the Mittlerer Ring and shows pictures from all over the world, which are titled "The Great Journey".
The underground station Westfriedhof is very popular for advertising agencies because of the colorful large lamps and the cave effect.
The subway station Fraunhoferstraße is dominated by two columns, because the route runs up in the proximity to the Isar in the Schildvortrieb.
From the Kolumbusplatz, the U2 runs through Silberhornstraße and Untersbergstraße to the Giesing station, where there a transfer possibility to the S3 and S7 on the surface is located.
Through Karl-Preis-Platz, the U2 runs further to the Innsbrucker Ring, where - as in Scheidplatz - there is usually a direct connection on the same platform to a crossing line, here the U5.
Directly adjacent to the metro stations is the exhibition grounds to the north and a new residential development to the south, the shopping center Riem Arcaden, as well as the area of the Riemerpark, where the 2005 Bundesgartenschau took place.
Above the Wettersteinplatz station is a cavity, which is planned to be built into residential underground parking, and there is a connection to Tram 25 to Grünwald located there.
The end station Mangfallplatz is under the Naupliastraße and has oblique walls leading up to the center, due to the narrow conditions on the surface.
Due to the high construction costs and the comparatively low passenger volume on this section, this decision was often criticized as wrong.
[1] Since 12 December 2011, the U7 reinforcement line has been running during the high traffic times from Westfriedhof to Neuperlach Zentrum.
Plans to extend the U1 from Mangfallplatz via the Harlaching hospital to the Großhesseloher bridge did not have any real chances in 2011 because of the tense budget situation.
[3] Under the working title U26, the option of a stretching route from the Am Hart station to Fröttmaning (U6), which could also be used to improve the development of the Allianz Arena, is being investigated in the "Verkehrskonzept Münchner Norden".
