The train from Copenhagen to Oslo wasn't very full, so we were able to relax perfectly during the journey. The staff on board were friendly and had carried out a quick and uncomplicated ticket inspection. The train was very clean and the toilets were hygienic. However, it was a little too cold for me on the train. Otherwise, the seats were comfortable and there were plenty of power sockets and a stable internet connection. The train was also hardly delayed and I didn't have to change trains.
