The train, which had the train number 3291, was very comfortable. The train was clean, the seats were fresh and the floor was well maintained. The journey took three hours and was very hygienic. There were no unpleasant odours and everything was okay in the toilets too. Another advantage was that I didn't have to change trains. This made the journey extremely pleasant and stress-free. An excellent journey overall. The train was equipped with power sockets and excellent network. Unfortunately, there was no food.
