Advantages
PunctualityAnnouncements and displays workedDisadvantages
CleanlinessCapacityVolumeAll in all, the journey from Hanover to Wunstorf was not relaxing. The train alone was a disaster. The cleanliness inside the train showed that it had not been cleaned for weeks. Graffiti on the outside meant that there was no way of looking out of the window. There was also the problem that there was a reduced number of carriages, so that the train was quite full and you could hardly get a seat. As a result, the noise on the train was loud. However, the train was on time and the information announcements and displays worked, so that the next stop and connections were announced and displayed without any problems.
