Sockets and wifi available

Toilets were hygienic

Cons

Cleanliness in the corridors

Staff had hardly any helpfulness

The train from Saalfeld to Leipzig had been at normal capacity. The noise level had also been normal and pleasant. The train had had both power sockets and a stable internet connection. However, the corridors in the train had been very dirty. However, the hygiene in the toilets was okay. I also found the seats comfortable, which even had a large table and plenty of legroom. The staff were quite quick at the ticket inspection and took relatively little time to answer questions. Apart from that, the train was on time and I didn't have to change trains.
