Advantages
Fast connectionNot overcrowdedPunctualityDisadvantages
Poor internet connectionDefective toiletUnfriendly staff at the railway stationWhat I liked most about travelling by train was the speed. Travelling by car takes much longer than by train. Unfortunately, the wifi hardly worked or didn't work at all on the train. I still travel this route regularly and rate it positively. One small negative point: unfriendly staff at the station. The toilet was out of order.
