No, it's not. Where are you going? There are two stops, one
southbound, one northbound.

It looks like this:

| || *| * * *
| || | --------------------------
| || | | |
| || | | |
| || | | Station |
|* || | | |
| || | | |
| SN | --------------------------
| || |
---------------------*---- || -------*-----------------------
||
------------------------------++----------W-----------------------
------------------------------++----------E-----------------------
||
--------------------------- || --------*----------------------
| || |
| || | |-----------------------|
130* || | | |
| || | | Marriott |
| || | | |
| || | |-----------------------|


N : tram stop northbound (inlc. line 16)
S : tram stop southbound (inlc. line 16)
W, E : etc.
130* : bus stop for line 130 to Wilanow
* : other bus stops

Thanks a lot for your map and your other post. I was completely
reversed in my thinking. I have some other questions, if you don't
mind. What exactly is Centrum? At first I thought it was just a
tram stop at the corner of Andersa and Jerozolimskie, but now I
see a large block of something called Centrum just south of the
Stalin skyscraper. Is Centrum just bus lanes? Speaking of that
tram stop, where exactly on the corner of Andersa and Jerozolimskie
will trams 4 & 36 stop: NW, NE, SW, or SE? Also, I see a Polski
Express bus stop on another map very close to where you inserted
SN. Is this a bus to the airport? If not, does an airport bus stop at
Warszawa Centralna (for going to the airport)? Finally, I see lots of
names with Rondo in them. I am familiar with rondo because of my
listening to classical music, but what does it mean in a geographical
sense? Thanks again.

Hi Pete

When we were driving around Europe one thing we liked was the signs,
starting in the outer suburbs, in every major city which led to the
centre of town. Sometimes they said "Centrum", sometimes "Centro",
sometimes "Zentrum" etc. From memory (someone will correct me) they
showed the word, plus a double circle like a target and an arrow for
direction.
