Train connection Göttingen to Frankfurt. Today I took the Intercity Express (ICE) from Göttingen to Frankfurt. Unfortunately, it was 5 minutes late. The ICE was fully air-conditioned and had good wifi. There were power sockets on the seats. The train had a dining car and fully functional toilets. I was able to book the ticket online as well as a seat reservation. The train was clean and the compartment was quiet. The train was only slightly busy. I did not have to change trains as it was a direct connection.
