Advantages
IconPleasant ride
IconNice staff
Disadvantages
IconSlight delay
With a slight delay, we set off from Osnabrück main station in the direction of Munich. The luggage could easily be stowed in the overhead compartment above the seat. The reserved seat was very comfortable and had a power connection for charging mobile phones and laptops. The wifi also worked perfectly the whole way. This was very convenient because I had to work from the train.
