Advantages
Delicious on-board bistroBeautiful trainPractical rideDisadvantages
Slight delayThe train ride from Osnabrück to Münster was very relaxed. The journey normally takes 23 minutes on the ICE, we were 10 minutes late, which was really ok. The train had everything you needed for the short distance, good seating comfort, power sockets everywhere and the service was really friendly. As far as I can tell, the train was also really clean, so the price-performance ratio is really exemplary.
Advantages
Stable wifiPunctualDisadvantages
Somewhat unclean floorThe train connection was absolutely punctual. The timetable was adhered to precisely. The ticket price was reasonable compared to other providers. However, there is room for small price reductions. The floor in the train was a little unclean and stuck unpleasantly to the soles of our shoes. The wifi worked well for the most part, but there were only short interruptions during the journey. The toilets were clean and well maintained. Only the limited number of WCS could lead to bottlenecks at peak times. The seats were comfortable and ergonomically designed. Sufficient legroom and adjustable backrests contributed to a pleasant journey. Overall, I was very satisfied with this train connection and would gladly repeat it.
