Advantages
IconVery good catering facilities with large tables
IconComfortable seats and good equipment
IconConnection announcements and friendly staff
Disadvantages
IconDelay of less than 10 minutes
On this journey, the train had been slightly delayed by less than 10 minutes. However, as I didn't have to change trains, this wasn't a problem for me. There was a snack vending machine on the train and a coffee machine next to it. There were also seating options with large tables, which were very comfortable. Apart from that, all the necessary equipment was available and the cleanliness of the train was acceptable. The staff made a good impression on me and were very helpful. They also apologised for the delay and announced alternative connections. All in all, a very nice journey!
