Advantages
IconPunctuality and no need to change trains
IconFast ticket inspection and good announcements
IconComfortable seats with the usual equipment
IconCleanliness and hygiene very good
Disadvantages
IconIncreased volume on the train
I also had to take the S-Bahn from Mönchengladbach to Düsseldorf, which wasn't very full. However, the noise level was very high due to the many families on the train. I found the seats here comfortable and the facilities were just as good as usual. The staff checked the tickets quickly and made good announcements. The train was very clean and hygienic. There was also no need to change trains here. In between, the train was slightly delayed, but this was quickly made up for by the time we reached our destination. All in all, a very good journey
