Advantages
IconFriendly staff with connection options despite delays
IconComfortable seats and sufficient equipment
IconClean train and pleasant volume
Disadvantages
IconDelay of 35 minutes
A lot had been in order on the journey. The staff were friendly, the train was very good in the toilets and passenger area and the volume on the train was very pleasant. The ticket check went off without a hitch and the seats had been very comfortable. There were power sockets and a working internet connection on the train. The only thing that bothered me here was the delay of 35 minutes. However, this was announced with a reason and we were also told about possible connections at the destination station. Otherwise, a really relaxed journey!
Advantages
IconComfortable seats with sufficient power sockets
IconRegular announcements
Iconno change
Disadvantages
IconTrain very busy and noisy atmosphere
IconDelay of 15 minutes
IconNo ticket inspection
IconPoor cleanliness on the train and in the toilets
IconNo internet connection
IconAnnouncements too quiet
The train from Ingolstadt to Nuremberg was very overcrowded, so the volume in the passenger compartment was far too loud. There was also no ticket inspection by the staff due to the crowds. I found the seats comfortable and there were plenty of power sockets nearby. Unfortunately, there was no internet connection here. The cleanliness here was also not good, which was particularly noticeable in the toilets. Announcements were made regularly, but they were far too quiet. The train was also delayed by 15 minutes. Just as well I didn't have to change trains. All in all, not a very nice journey!
Advantages
IconTrip duration
IconPeace and quiet
Disadvantages
IconNone
I have to say that I was very satisfied with the journey. Everything went smoothly! The train left on time and arrived on time and I didn't have to change trains in between. What's more, the journey wasn't long as we travelled quite quickly. I am satisfied!
Advantages
IconMany comfortable seating options
IconFriendly staff
My train from Ingolstadt to Nuremberg arrived and departed on time. The accessibility was okay, there were ramps and wide doors for wheelchair users and pushchairs, and there were also parking spaces on the train. I sat by the window and had enough space to put my bag down, and my seat also had a folding table, which was very comfortable for working on a laptop, for example. The train staff were very friendly and helpful. The toilet facilities were very clean and there was all the catering I needed. The journey didn't take too long in my opinion and went very well.
