Advantages

Punctual

Infant compartment

Children's ticket

Service

Clean

Disadvantages

overcrowded

Nobody offers a seat to a mum with a baby/toddler - it would be nice if they could do it.

Wifi did not work well

The railway also offers a pleasant travel experience for families with children. At least if you have reserved a baby compartment. This train was clean and punctual. Unfortunately, the regional train was far too full and I didn't get a seat as a mum with a baby.
