A station means a permanent threat to the public order. Not only has it many entrances and exits to the surface, but also into a multiple branched network of tunnels of the underground. Next to travelers such locations also attract homeless, rootless inhabitants of the cities: bums, drug addicts and derelicts. Since they disturb the image and business of shops, at Hamburg main station there is used a special means to drive those people away: The station's fore court as well as in the tube system of the underground is treated with classical music. Studies investigated that such music makes it unbearable to drug addicts to linger at these places - classical music as a weapon for social hygene.
