Chris wrote a post for the official Google Earth and Maps blog today. On it he announced the addition of Google Transit coverage for Dallas, BART and others… not news for readers of my blog. Also, it announced that a few additions have been implemented for European travellers.

There’s also great news for Europe. We’ve added transit stop icons to Google Maps for a new batch of cities. In addition to Dublin, Ireland and Linz, Austria, the following 12 cities in Germany have also joined the club: Augsburg, Bielefeld, Bochum, Bunde, Dresden, Jena, Karlsruhe, Kassel, Lubeck, Mainz, Rostock and Trier.
