	Just to revive this excellent thread with a related question .. I am trying to get to Allschwil tomorrow and SBB website tells me that I need bus number 48 from Basel SBB. Please could anyone post up a handy picture (preferably showing bus size and colour) as to where I could get my bus from at SBB? Go through SBB practically daily but just don't remember having seen the number 48

I think it's green, small (i.e non-bendy), and parks up behind the 50 at the exit of the French bit of SBB (so walking up towards Markthalle).

I'm only 70% sure because I've not been on it, but I've seen it once or twice.

	Which part of Allschwil? The more usual route is tram 1 to Brausebad then tram 6. Otherwise walk the 200 or so yards to Heuwaage and pick up the 6 there. Cheers, Nick

... or tram 1 to Schützenhaus and then bus 33 from there, which goes to most of the stops the 48 does.

Dorf. The bus thing threw me, but using it gives me a 28 minute journey time from Liestal to Allschwil Dorf, which is pretty impressive .. couldn't do it that fast by car.

Ohhh .. liking the detail. But this info is no use without pictures ...

A word of warning though. Don't try to catch it where it's pictured. That's an accident blackspot. A tram might fall over on top of you.
