No clean WCsDriving inspectors unfriendlyNot very comfortable seatsThe train journey from Stuttgart to Ludwigsburg is always an absolute pleasure for me. From start to finish, the journey was smooth and pleasant. The passengers are very friendly. As always, the train is punctual and clean, but I still think the seats should quietly be more comfortable. It is always a pleasure for me to relax during the journey and admire the passing scenery.

Advantages
The punctualityDisadvantages
The defective air conditionerThis train journey was not very great. The air conditioning didn't work, neither did the wifi or the power sockets. The service was half good, as the ticket inspectors were not very friendly with the passengers. The train was clean and the journey ran on time according to plan. The prices were very good. I myself did not have to buy a ticket as I have a monthly pass. However, my friends had to get one and got it at a good price.
