Advantages
IconPunctual journey
Disadvantages
IconThe train is old
IconPoor ventilation
IconNarrow seats
I have to say that I prefer to take the bus rather than the train. The prices for the train tickets are good, but I think the train is too old and the ventilation didn't work, so the air on the train was very stuffy and stale. The seats are cramped and there is little room to move around. If the train was fully booked, it would be very uncomfortable. The journey was not delayed, which was pleasing.
Advantages
IconCheap ticket
IconCheap seat reservation
Disadvantages
IconNone
I particularly like the fact that you can reserve the neighbouring seat for a small extra charge. The ticket including the seat and adjoining seat is then still cheaper than other means of travel and you have a relaxed journey with plenty of space and no annoying neighbours. For that alone I have high praise. The train was clean and well ventilated. It wasn't noisy and there were no disruptions. The journey was on time and I think it's absolutely recommendable.
