The journey from Osnabrück Hbf to Oldenburg Hbf by Deutsche Bahn was really good in itself. The journey time of about 1.5 hours was pleasant, the occupancy rate was low and so it was also quiet. Unfortunately, the toilets were not so clean. The seats and the carriage itself were clean and comfortable.
