Advantages
Cleanliness and hygiene insideFriendly staffComfortable seats with good equipmentOn time and without changing trainsDisadvantages
Displays and announcements faultyExterior cleanlinessI was able to use the S-Bahn from Wurzen to Leipzig, which ran through without changing trains. It also arrived at my destination on time, although the train was more than 5 minutes late at the start. I found the seats on the train very comfortable and there were plenty of power sockets nearby. An internet connection was also available. The toilets were very hygienic and the inside of the train was very clean. Unfortunately, the outside of the train was very dirty and covered in graffiti. Unfortunately, the announcements and displays did not work either inside or outside. Otherwise, the staff were very friendly.
