    "body": "## Overview\n\nThe Stadtwerke Verkehrsgesellschaft Frankfurt am Main mbH (VGF) is the municipal transport company of the city of Frankfurt am Main and operates the U-Bahn and the tram of Frankfurt am Main. It belongs to the Stadtwerke Frankfurt am Main and is a member of the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV).\n\n## Operations\n\n- U-Bahn Frankfurt am Main\n- Tram Frankfurt am Main\n\n## City bus services\n\nThe municipal city bus services in Frankfurt am Main have been operated since 1 September 2014 by In-der-City-Bus GmbH (ICB), a subsidiary of the Stadtwerke; the VGF is responsible for infrastructure and customer service. Important bus hubs are the Konstablerwache and the Hauptbahnhof with the long-distance coach terminal.\n\n## History\n\nThe VGF came into existence with effect from 1 August 1996, when the transport division of the Stadtwerke Frankfurt am Main GmbH was transferred to the Verkehrsgesellschaft Frankfurt am Main mbH; its roots go back to the municipal tram founded on 1 January 1898, and from 1899 the first electric tram ran. In 2001, the local transport company traffiQ – die lokale Verkehrsgesellschaft Frankfurt am Main mbH was spun off from the VGF as the task owner; since the timetable change of 2010/2011, the VGF no longer offers its own bus operations. The VGF belongs to the Stadtwerke Frankfurt am Main Holding GmbH and operates the U-Bahn and the tram of Frankfurt am Main.",
