Switzerland's Pee Fee

Jaunted: (Irish low-cost airline) Ryanair isn't the only one in love with the idea of pee fees; European train stations have elevated it from just an idea to a practice, installing many automatic pay bathrooms to serve the tens of thousands of travelers who pass through every day. One such station is the Zürich Hauptbahnhof in Switzerland, known as a hustley-bustley nexus for trains around the continent.

The pee fee area is hilariously named "McClean," though not associated with the Golden Arches in any way. It's a fancy pee station; there's also the option of taking a shower or just using a vanity to freshen up, although you have to pay extra, of course:

   - Urinal: $1.68

   - Toilet: $2.24

   - Shower: $13.42

   - Sink and mirror: $2.24

   - Diaper change: $2.24
