The exit was a bit stressfulThe journey was quiet and pleasant. I had a comfortable seat in the aisle. The train was clean and had enough space for my luggage. The announcements were clear and understandable and I could read most of the time or just look out of the window. The scenery was also beautiful and the atmosphere in the carriage was relaxed. Everything ran on time and without any rush. Getting off at the end was a bit stressful as many wanted to get off at the same time, that was the only downside.
