Advantages

According toFullI had a good train journey from Bamberg to Erlangen. The train was clean, but it was a bit crowded and therefore very noisy.
Unfortunately, it was also very warm in the train, but it was still OK for this route.
I also think that this route has a beautiful landscape. I could also charge my mobile phone because there were sockets on the train.
