My train journey from Augsburg to Nuremberg was generally without any problems. We both left and arrived on time and I was absolutely delighted with the train staff. Everyone was unreservedly very friendly and took their time. The train was very well cleaned and the facilities on the train were also perfectly adequate. In general, the train was not particularly busy, which I found very pleasant. The journey could not have been better.

Highly recommended train journey! The train was on time and I didn't have to change trains, which is why I arrived quite quickly. The train is very quiet and I was able to concentrate on my work. It's very clean and you can go to the loo without being disgusted. The price-performance ratio is also good. The wifi and power socket both worked. The staff were very friendly. I can only recommend it.

Disadvantages

IconPunctuality
Unfortunately, the original train was cancelled and I didn't end up taking the ICE, but the IC, which is much slower. There was also a mistake with the seat allocation, so I ended up sitting on the floor. At least the staff were friendly and luckily there was wifi, so I was able to distract myself a bit. The journey didn't take too long and the price was okay.
