Arrival by train:

In Berlin there are a number of stations for long distance and regional trains. The Main Station (Hauptbahnhof) is located in the city center. Other long-distance train stations are Ostbahnof and Südkreuz, which are well connected to Adlershof. From Hauptbahnhof or Ostbahnhof, take the S-Bahn S9 (direction Flughafen BER - Terminal 1-2).
