There was a ticket office at Friedrichstrasse station which sold tickets
to the West - in DM naturally, and you could by a ticket for 2,90M at
East Berlin S Bahn stations to Berlin-West.

I am quite sure that Friedrichstraße was the only East Berlin S-Bahn
station where one could buy S-Bahn tickets towards West Berlin in DM.
And only in the "non-socialist currency" area, i.e. the area which acted
as an exchange station for intra West Berlin traffic.
