Gleisdreieck (Berlin U-Bahn)

Gleisdreieck is a Berlin U-Bahn station located on the rail text color|system=BVG|line=U1 and the rail text color|system=BVG|line=U2. The station's name means "railway triangle" in English and marks the spot of an earlier major train hub (only an intersection, albeit without a connection, with the Berlin S-Bahn remains) which today is part of the "Deutsches Technikmuseum" (German Museum of Technology). It is the westernmost station in Kreuzberg for both lines. There was a major accident at the station in 1908 which killed 18 people.

Gleisdreieck was used for a few years as a M-Bahn station.
