No bistroThe journey was pleasant overall. No need to change trains, the train was on time and the staff were friendly. There was no bistro on board, but I had something with me anyway. Value for money was good if you book early. The noise level was okay, only occasionally a little restless in the open-plan carriage. What I liked was that the route offered really nice views in between. Not luxury, but solid. I would do it again.
