This was my outward journey in second class and I didn't notice anything negative. My train arrived on time, I also got there on time. The wifi was very good. The seats were comfortable. It was a relatively short journey, so I only ordered a tea, which was also very tasty. The staff were pleasant and did a good job. The journey only took half an hour, I recommend this ride.

I travelled from Fulda to Würzburg on ICE 1681. The journey took just under 1.5 hours. I didn't reserve a seat and regretted it afterwards, because the train was very full. On the way to Würzburg, one could enjoy the beautiful views. The train was on time for the entire duration of the journey.

The train journey from Fulda to Würzburg served its purpose. However, I was not completely satisfied with the cleanliness on the train. This could be improved. On the positive side, the train was not delayed. The air conditioning also worked, so there was a pleasant atmosphere. The journey time was relatively short, just under 30 minutes. The price was also convincing, as it was not too high.

In the summer of 2023, I took the ICE from Würzburg to Fulda and back. The facilities were very good with electricity and wifi. The train was very tidy and the hygiene was excellent. Once again, I particularly liked the seats in the ICE, which are very comfortable. There were no negative points.
