The train journey from Wuppertal to Berlin was solid overall. The train was on time and comfortable, but the price was unfortunately not that cheap. The carriage was clean and offered enough space for the travellers, but the price for the trip was rather high compared to other means of transport. Nevertheless, it can be said that the train is a safe and reliable way to get from A to B. The journey itself went smoothly and the train was very comfortable. The journey itself went smoothly and there were no significant delays or inconveniences. All in all, the journey by train from Wuppertal to Berlin was solid, but the price could be cheaper.
