Advantages
Comfortable seats with great equipmentPerfect cleanlinessShort journey time without changing trainsLarge table and plenty of legroom availableDisadvantages
Much too loud in the passenger compartmentNo staff and no ticket inspectionThe occupancy rate here on the train was acceptable. However, it was far too loud in the passenger compartment.
There was also no staff on the train to regulate this. Therefore, no ticket inspection was carried out. Otherwise, I found the seats very comfortable, which also had a large table with plenty of legroom. There was also plenty of internet access and a snack machine.
The cleanliness was also good, which I found perfect, especially in the toilets.
The journey time was also kept to a minimum here, as the train was not delayed and I didn't have to change trains.
