Advantages
IconPowerful wifi
IconLaptop sockets
IconFriendly staff
Disadvantages
IconOften high utilisation
IconLack of punctuality
IconNarrow corridors
As I am a trainee with Deutsche Bahn, I often take the train between Dessau and Erfurt to reach my vocational school (Erfurt) and my training workshop (Leipzig). The journey to Leipzig is shorter and less busy than the journey to Erfurt, but still usually high. Despite high occupancy, there is a pleasant silence, so you also have your peace and quiet. With a travel bag, however, I often have problems getting through the aisles, but it's not impossible. Otherwise, everything is top-notch, and I can only recommend a trip with Deutsche Bahn!
